    Last but not the least!

    Well I got my last clutch for this year this morning. This girl gave me 6 last year and she dropped 8 for me this year which makes that my largest clutch for the year.

    Overall I am pretty happy with how this year went with the ball pythons, out of 12 breedable females 11 laid fertile clutches for me and thats a pretty good percentage. Even my small clutches packed a pretty good punch, one four eggs clutch gave me 1.3 YBs and a 3 egger gave me 2.1 YBs.

    Here is a photo from this morning.


    Eggs ready for the 'bator


    I did a repeat of last years breeding with her because she and my male pastel produced some knockouts in that clutch.
    This is one of my holdback females from that clutch.


    Hopefully I can get some more nice ones again this year!

    Thanks Drew, hopefully everything goes good and I can get a couple of female pastel keepers like last year.

    Thanks! I am pretty stoked with how my girls have done. It is funny because last year I went 6 for 7 with the lone hold out being the same girl that didn't go this year.

    Thank you, she is a looker and if her pastels are anything like last years bunch they should be lookers as well.

    This is another female pastel I kept from last years clutch.


    Male sibling that I kept for awhile but recently sold.

    What a pretty sight, a big healthy female BP on a stunningly lovely clutch of eggs - congrats Kevin! I can see why you held back those Pastels. They are gorgeous!
