I'm excited about seeing what all you get this year...and excited about me getting a real job haha!

Thanks for clarifying! Its easy to get so excited about one part of a clutch and forget that het clowns are awesome too. :)

08_clutch#009 - 5/11/08 - 2 eggs and 3 slugs - Clown X Normal - This female normal had me so confused!!! She was building nicely but I never saw an ovulation and her follicles suddenly felt like eggs and were riding really low. She had her POS right on cue but then after 30 days went into another shed cycle. She sheds out about 5 days ago and I had no idea what's going on with her! This morning looked in and found her on 2 eggs and 3 slugs. These eggs are TINY but have good veins. They weigh 40g each - smallest I've ever incubated!

I'm not going to produce very many Het Clowns this year. Especially with clutches like this one!

Wow, those are small eggs Justin. I hope they're both healthy girls. :gj:

Good luck with those tiny little buggers!

*offers a rat to the snake gods* :D

Wow, she shed again right before the lay??? Interesting.

Good luck with 'em!! Be interesting to see what comes of it.

;):gj::gj:

Cheers,
Kat

08_clutch#010 - 5/12/08 - 9 eggs - Clown X Normal - This one makes me feel better about yesterdays clutch!

What a great year you are having so far, Justin! Hope those little bitty eggs work out okay for you. I don't think I've ever seen pictures posted of such small but lovely eggs. Best wishes with all your clutches this year. It will be fun to watch what you hatch out. :)

Damn Justin, you are pumpin em out huh?

Thanks Kevin!

Congratulations, keep us posted on those teeny eggs, alright??

08_clutch#011 - 5/23/08 - 8 eggs - Cinny & Spider & Yellow Belly X Normal - This girl dropped 1 egg on 5/18/08 and left it on the far side of the cage. Candled good but I expect it will go bad.
http://www.jkobylkareptiles.com/Imag...clutch_011.jpg

08_clutch#012 - 5/24/08 - 6 eggs - Pastel Het Pied & Spider X Unproven Granite - This is a really sweet looking granite girl I've been hoping to prove. Last year I bred her to the Pastel Het Pied and she produced 6 eggs with only one pastel and no granites... We'll see!

ooooo i LIKE her....Good luck!!!!!!!!

08_clutch#013 - 5/26/08 - 6 eggs - Albino X Het Albino - This female came from a not so reliable source and did not produce a single albino out of 4 eggs from the same pairing last year. Still happy to see het albinos coming at least!

http://www.jkobylkareptiles.com/Imag...clutch_013.jpg

08_clutch#001 - Hatched! - 5 eggs - Lavender Albino X Normal = 3.2 100% het Lavender Albinos

A couple tidbits about his clutch, this is a really nice ch girl sold to me as an "apricot." She also has a very striped belly. Only bred 2 times total, once by each male.

That would be a challenge! I'll know this year if they are compatible. I'd be SHOCKED :O:O:O if they aren't.

08_clutch#014 - 5/31/08 - 6 eggs - Genetic Stripe X Normal - Nice to get some more Het Stripes!

http://www.jkobylkareptiles.com/Imag...clutch_014.jpg

http://www.jkobylkareptiles.com/Imag..._002_hatch.jpg

An exciting ovulation this weekend too! She spilled her water bowl but was so HUGE I still had to take a pic. Watch for this clutch in about 50 days! :gj::gj:

http://www.jkobylkareptiles.com/Imag..._ovulation.jpg

Nice!!!!

Those babies are good lookin!

Congrats on all the babies, that pied looks like a beached whale! Good luck!! :)

Looks like a good year for you Justin. Congrats!

I'm really enjoying this thread. When you say a normal is perfect pattern or color for het lavs, what are you looking for? I know that with my high contrast regular albinos (lavs in the future I hope) I look for female hets that have very dark black markings, almost black backs.

congrats man, love to see all of these clutches!

That's exactly what I look for. That particular girl has a reduced pattern that seemed genetic in her clutch from last year. Reduced pattern anything is cool IMO. :)

Thanks for the comments! I won't have any more eggs for a couple more weeks but there will be a few clutches hatching.

Go Lakers! The pied was bred to my pastel het pied.

Justin

Things are looking real exciting there Justin. Best of luck and like you said

GO LAKERS!!!!!

08_clutch#004 - Hatched! - Pastel het Pied (Kobylka Line) & Pied (Kahl Line) x Normal - 6 eggs & 1 slug

= 2.4 50% Possible Het Pieds

Notes: Super happy with the ratio on this one! I strongly suspect that my pied male sired this entire clutch, but since the Pastel Het Pied also bred the female, these babies are labeled 50% Hets.

http://www.jkobylkareptiles.com/Imag...h_04_hatch.jpg

Further Notes: I promised to disclose all the data that will help help in the "Pied Markers - Fact or Fiction" debate. So here it is my first chance!

Belly shot of dame in Clutch#004 - Very normal, one cannot say that any belly striping was passed on from mom.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...f004_belly.jpg

Now we have belly shots of all 6 of 08_Clutch#004 offspring - clutch likely sired by Pied male, but possibly also by my Pastel 100% het Pied. - Not one typical belly in the clutch. Every hatchling has standard het pied marker traits.

http://www.jkobylkareptiles.com/Imag...04_bellies.jpg

I hope this is helpful. Much more data to come. Not hiding anything! :gj::gj:

Glad you included the other thread, makes for some great info.... and congrats on those too!

Thanks, the fact that every one has markers AND there were no pastels make me think they are probably all hets.

08_clutch#005 - Hatched! - Lavender x Normal - 6 eggs

Notes: This dame proved genetic reduced pattern back in 2005, took a couple of years off and now again in 2008. 4 eggs went bad in this clutch... Having eggs go bad is no fun and gives a very powerless feeling! :mad::mad:

Hatched:
1.0 Genetic Reduced Het Lavender
0.1 Het Lavender

More HIGH CONTRAST Lavender hets! No blushing anywhere...

http://www.jkobylkareptiles.com/Imag..._005_HATCH.jpg

Also had another BIG ovulation last night. 50 days staring now!
