pinstripe x normal. got 6 pins and 8 normals. this year she has been locking with my mojave pied male.

My biggest was 9 back in '08, from a ~3300 gram girl. Most of the time, I get 7.

9 from a 3300 gram girl? thought that size would have a ton more.. my last 1500 did 8.... Are the eggs bigger then by that size ball and the babies fat??

The eggs were a pretty good size. The babies averaged around 70-75 grams each at hatching, but that's about average for me. The past year, that same female produced 7 eggs again, but these things were huge! The hatchlings averaged around 80-85 grams each.

Those are BIG babies.. :D

Yeah, I think the babies could have taken rat pups right from the start! LOL I offered rat pinks for the first couple of feedings, though, then switched to pups pretty quickly. The good news is, the 7 huge eggs had 4 spiders!

nice. my last clutch had 8 eggs. 5 spiders 1 paster 2 normals.. didn't hit the odds on a bumble x normal.. lol My boy was spider crazy..

First year breeding last year. 2 clutches, 9 and 8 :D

Total - 9 enchis, 4 males, 5 females

Largest clutch to date was produced in my first year breeding: 13 eggs. Every single one hatched into a healthy baby--11 pastels and 2 normals!

7 from both my 2500 g girls last year. Both had huge eggs. Babies came out anywhere from 70-85g. Big babies.
