2nd clutch in the incubator
Well this clutch was a pleasant surprise. The female was quite small (1450g) but because she was proven and had laid eggs at this size I wasn't too concerned. The ovulation was tiny so I had been thinking the worst and was expecting slugs. I awoke saturday to 6 (fairly small) fertile eggs.. Normal x Mojave! Mom didn't even try to bite me..
Here are some pics:

Re: 2nd clutch in the incubator
Thanks!! I think luck is on my side! I have two quarantined girls that are showing signs.. Hopefully they will give me some eggs, they were bred to a lesser before I bought them.
Re: 2nd clutch in the incubator
sweet deal.... do you have any lessers? If not, you can't beat that.... free lesser babies with purchase of a normal female :gj:
Re: 2nd clutch in the incubator
My only morph is a mojave so I am looking forward to some lessers! One of the girls laid eggs in december so I wasn't even thinking she could give eggs.
Re: 2nd clutch in the incubator
My 2nd clutch this year was kind of like that. Female was a bit smaller than I would have liked but she stopped eating so thought why not. She was just under 1500g I wasnt sure she was even going to lay. I ended up with 4 smaller but perfect eggs. She didnt even hiss when I took her off the eggs.
Re: 2nd clutch in the incubator
I got her eating again which is a bonus. I had to kickstart her on a live weaned rat but I followed it up the next day with a medium F/T and she took it fast..
I wish my other girls would eat this good
Re: 2nd clutch in the incubator
Mine still hasent started eating yet hope this week she will start again. She laid on 6/5/08 so hasnt been to long but still long enough.
