    What a beautiful sight! I have a few questions just around your maternal incubation:

    Did you feed her during the time?
    How did you keep the temperature and humidity?
    And overall, how was it all?

    If there were a forum hall of fame for the cutest picture, that one with the mama and baby with their heads together would top the list! Congrats!

    Yes, I offer small meals to my females every 7-10 days. Most females will eat during maternal incubation, although on occasion they may skip a meal or two. I don't do anything special, if you have proper husbandry- any fertile eggs will hatch. Overall, it's always a blast. I'm one of the few people that have hatched over 100+ ball pythons using maternal incubation (many photos to prove it, just search my posts). It makes me happy to see other hobbyists doing maternal incubation too! I remember in the old days, people laughed at me but then they got all jealous when my eggs would hatch and their incubators had heat spikes or malfunctions! Technology is great, but nature knows best =) I do also incubate many clutches using artificial incubation but my maternal clutches are definitely the most memorable! I always keep at least 1 or 2 from every clutch!
