18 grams Bumblebee!!!

Hi, this is Gefú from Mexico City. My female het for albino leyed 4.5 eggs. One of these eggs weighed 50 grams. The egg looked like a slug, but half of the egg was fertile.

Two months later, a micro-machine Bumblebee 66% het was born weighing 18 grams. She weighed 7 grams more than my Morelia viridis babies. :rolleye2:

Now, she is eating a fuzzy every week. Do you think that she will become a normal adult female?

Thanks.

Awesome post - thanks for sharing :) How much do bp babies usually weight? Around 40-50 grams??

She's a beauty and she will most likely grow up to be a perfectly normal adult. BG has had them just like that and they catch up in size quick. If they eat good...you'll never know they were once a Leeetle Minion/runt.:D

She's certainly got the will to live - that's for sure. I don't see any reason why she wouldn't grow to normal adult size. She's beautiful!

What an adorable little pumpkin....so sweet. Congratulations!!!:banana:

Esting lile that, it won't take too much time before it catches up to it's siblings.

Congrats!

This pic is adorable and should be entered in the BPOM contest. I'm sorry I can't answer your question, but had to comment on the pic and give kuddos to you for not giving up on her!!

She looks good, I think she'll grow just fine.

i think she was so hungry in that tiny egg... lol.. eating like that, she will grow like weeds.

Thats a leggit bumble bee! I really hopes he makes it to adult hood! Wish you the best of luck amigo!

-Payson!

Amazing little bee..:)

She's see-through! How cute:)

She beautiful!

What, wow, how adorable. I LOVE to see and hear about tiny ball pythons!

Believe it or not, and you may already be aware of this, there's pics and the story of a 15 gram ball python that has made it on these forums. There's three threads:

I forget if there is any advice but it's a great series of posts.

To steal a line from Jurassic Park, 'Nature finds a way".

Smallest BP I've ever seen! Good for you!:gj:

Omg.. she is so adorable. Wow. And she has a nice reduced pattern. Good luck with her:gj:

she's amazing!!!!

she's a beauty! keep us updated on her growth! :gj:

What a cutie!!! She seems to have quite an appetite.....you should have no worries if she keeps that up! :gj:

I think the bee will be just fine!! Good luck with her and she is going to be one looker when she grows up!!

Oh my god! That is the most adorable snake I have ever seen hatch out of a boob egg! I can see it becoming a monster adult to, how cute!

I think she will do just fine! My spider was 34 grams when hatched and is one of my best feeders! He is now 218 grams and was hatched Oct.'09! She is a beautiful bee! Congrats!

Not only is it the smallest bee Ive ever seen, but it's also the nicest one! That yellow just pops!!! I see a good future for this snake, congrats! ~Caylan.S.~

Shes the Smallest beauty Bee ;)

She is beautiful. With an appetite like that I think she'll grow. Also people who say my bp is to small to eat a "_____" should see that picture of her eating that mouse or rat. Whichever it is.
If she doesn't grow to full size, just plan on breeding micro ball pythons. =)

Holy cow she's tiny!!!! That's so amazing! And she's absolutely stunning to top it all off! Looks like she's a good eater and will do just fine! :gj:

Like the others, I think she'll grow up to be just fine!

We had a clutch like that last year, all of the babies came out, just over 30g, with our bumblebee female weighing 22g. I can proudly say, that she is now over 600g.

Oh my gosh! What an adorable little snake! I have never seen on that tiny!

Start tiny get friggin huge. She's gunna be a 5' 5000g monster before long ;)

Most ball pythons that hatch from a boob egg do just fine, and are smaller than the rest...everyone I know and from you tube vid's I watch all boob egg babies grow up evenly and even surpass normally hatched ones.

Good luck w/ the little cutie ;p

She is a beautiful bee! (: Wow!

awww thats so cute! the most cutest bee I've seen... :D:gj:

wow what a story and thats a really nice bee, reduce !

ohh wow that is amazing!!!
Please keep us update on her :D

I love how she is see-through! that is a trip!

wow that is insane small...good thing that egg didn't completely slug out:gj:

cool story!! the mouldy egg that still hatched and also had an extremely pretty little bumblebee in it. looks like it will be just fine! congrats on it

note to self, incubate half boobed eggs... that bee looks awesome to me, congrats!

Awww! She is gorgeous! What a great story. Congrats on her :)

Wow :O.I bet she becomes a big girl :gj:

OMG so tiny but beautiful just beautiful :banana::banana::banana:

Awwww:P
She'll be just fine!

Aww look what a good eater she is!

I had a "tiny" I got from a store...when I brought her home she was only 33 grams. Lord knows how tiny she was when she was born. I swear it took FOREVER for her to get bigger even though she ate really well. Anyways...all of a sudden, totally out of the blue she got really big and I swear it was over night. Now she went from a tiny scared shy lil girl to a big sassy hisser...lol:rolleyes:

That is awesome, great story!!

She is the cutest tiny BP I have ever seen and she is gorgeous! Thanks for sharing that ,it's amazing to see what nature can do!

She is just beautiful!

What a cutie.
