Yellow Belly Freak.. graphic picture warning

Its has been a good year so far.... But..

I guess when you get more clutches more things can go wrong and you can hit some of negative things..
I started with a clutch from Albino X Het Albino this year.. there was 5 eggs, when the time come to hatching there was 3 albino and 2 het's.
one of the albino died in the egg.. the snake was wrapped in the umbilical cord and made a knot on it... hmm bad luck..

My 4th clutch was from Pinstripe X Normal..
5 eggs.. When the time to hatch come there was 4 pinstripes and 1 normal.. the one pinstripe died in the egg...
the same way as the albino did... the snake was wrapped in the umbilical cord and made a knot out of it...

My 7th clutch was from Yellow Belly X Normal..
6 eggs.. the 5 babies hatch on day 53 (2 Yellow Bellys and 3 Normal) and one Yellow belly was sitting in the egg..
it hatched on day 56 and I have never see a snake that deformed.. the head was a mess and it was kinked all the way down from the neck to the tail..
what a freak..

I don't know what makes the snake turn out that way..
It can be like when human gets handicapped babies or it can be caused by to high temperature swing.
Hope this is the first and last i ever see..

Out of all that I have to say the one thats still alive is the saddest case.... :( (i thought it was dead by the pictures)

the other are unfortunate too... idk what else to say....

Man I feel sorry for you dude. It sucks when stuff like this happens but it will always happen even to the biggest and best of them all.

I had a deformed hatchling in the 100% Het Pied x 66% P. Het Pied clutch. It looked very similar to that YB. It sat in the egg longer than the others so I had to cut and that's what I discovered. I euthanized it immediately. It hardly had a mouth. I just had 3 other clutches hatch this week and everyone was healthy and one other clutch had hatched before the Het Pied so I don't know what happened.

I feel your pain I lost 5 eggs at day 45 two Bee's 2 pastels 1 spider,don't really know what happened,it sucks.

sorry man
