Re: Bought "unpaired" BP got Surprise Eggs - Not Happy!
Thanks everyone for the opinions on this. After reading them, I feel a little better about the whole thing. I am choosing to believe this was an accident on the sellers part and hope to get a Mochi or two out of it! I think a better word for what I was feeling was disappointed. I actually still had my incubator out from a clutch a couple months earlier and as was mentioned, I was expecting to take care of some hatchlings anyway. So that part wasn't the biggest issue. I just really like the Black Head Mojaves and was looking forward to having one this season, which I know may not have happened anyway.
I like the idea of getting her back on feed and after the clutch has been hatched, and selling her and the hatchlings for another Mojave to give it a shot. My Black Head isn't proven yet of course, but I have him paired with a Champagne female and he is locked with her right now. As far as I can tell if I can get a Black Head Champagne, it may be a World's First which would be sweet!
