Bela's first slit egg.

I am So hoping for a reduced Pastel! Bela's first egg (of 4) had a nice slit in it, which I widened a bit with a razor.. looks Pastel to me! And if it is reduced.. wow. She was plugged into a spider but I don't think it's spidery looking. Could even be a normal.. Bela the mom is spotless, and i would love to prove this genetic.

Congrats!

Not a spider that I can see but might be a dark pastel or normal. :D

I just wish that they would come out already! I was not even this psyched about Ginger's clutch in all honesty. Not at all because I did not care.. but luckily for me, Sunday will be day 60 on these bad boys (or dare I say, girls..?) And these are out of Bela, who I bought and raised as a hatchling; so cool to come full circle with a snake like this.

Can't really tell but it look's like spider webbing to me.

heck the wait is driving even driving me nuts! there is nothing as exciting as peering into those eggs. or. seeing photos of eggs being peered into ^^

I peeked in today again and it looks more like a Pastel or Normal. Still can't see any black spots on it though.. I would prefer a spotless normal to a patterned pastel! If it were a male, I would breed it back to mom and prove out her Spotless ness. :D

Looks normal to me, I see a stripe that is often seen on the tail area. Congrats on the success! :)

by spots, do you mean the eyes of the alien heads?

Yes.
Looks like a spotless or reduced normal! I will keep ya's posted.

I've got a very nice reduced pattern normal female I'm hoping to breed to my pastel, who himself has a very interesting pattern, next year. i'd love for it to prove out as genetic.

I was thinking about it, if you do happen to find a few with genetically reduced patterns, wouldn't it be possible over the course of a few generations to breed out your own "spider" line by crossing reduced with reduced with reduced with reduced etc?
