Well it is in fact still exciting cause as far as i know I'm the 1st person to ever have quadruplet BP's in the reptile industry . and they did in fact hatch (pippin)
just never finished the process by coming out of the egg .
so its still a very exciting event none the less .(Least for me)

I might be an oddball, but did you say you cut the egg on day 40?
Isn't that way to early?

me cutting my eggs early didnt even play a factor in this , because all my other eggs are doing fine like they have year after year.
i cut all my eggs early .
its not for the novice to attempt.

Wow...so tiny! It's sad that they didn't make it, but I would have been very surprised if they did. I was hoping at least one of them might have been big enough...but at 12g.... :no: The patterns look cool...but I wonder if the interesting reduced patterns is just another sign of how under developed the poor little babies were. They just didn't have the resources from a single egg to fully develop. A necropsy would probably show a lot of internal mess as well, with underdeveloped organs and skeletal structures. :(
As sad as it is, it IS fascinating and so far as I know, a one-of-a-kind experience. I'm glad you were able to document it as fully as you did!
Regarding the early cut...it's not something I would recommend to anyone, but I know some people do it. So long as they are willing to accept the risks that come along with it, and have the skill to do it properly, I don't have an issue with it. It makes me wonder if there may be an incident of triplets successfully incubating, and after a clutch hatches on its own, the keeper thinks he had two sets of twins hatch, rather than one set of triplets...because who would think they'd all come out of the same egg?

Actually about the reduced pattern thats not from under developing , you should see the father . his reduced patterned is genetic its been proven my his father down to him plus the normal girl is a genetic reduced patterned breeder as well
the only thing thats factor about the pattern is the coloration isnt there other then that its susposed to look like that . ill post a pic of the father and you will see exactly what i mean . ITs a SICK melted pattern .
SIRE to Quadruplets and TWINS

Re: I Am Curious !!!! Anyone else ever have it happen ?
That IS an awesome pattern! Such a shame those babies didn't each get their own egg to grow up in. But it's apparent that daddy has a LOT more beautiful babies to sire!
Re: I Am Curious !!!! Anyone else ever have it happen ?
Heres 2 of the babies out so far ( and as you can see my cutting of the eggs EARLY had no ill affect ) ,mr. mykee :D
Both Males and Both weighing in at 66 grams
