    Uh....so there are
    Women who shouldn't have babies because their bodies are unable to give birth naturally? Who are you to say who or what can and cannot be bred. *smh* all of you are getting bent out of shape. If this snake had been in the wild she would have mated and laid eggs, and she may or may not have become bound. Many many morphs wouldn't be in existence if people didn't take chances with their pets. Without experiments, life would still be caveman style, and none of you would
    Be breeding anything except for females to make babies and hunting mastadons. This is supposed to be a friendly place but some of you're posts are so negative over something we should all be anxiously holding your breath over instead of sounding like a pissy mother in law who thinks her daughter in law is a stupid cow without a lick of common sense. Blah. Maybe you should be able to breed because you're too negative? Just my humble opinion. :rage:

    uh no..? if this morph was left in the wild it would've likely died out. the only reason this morph is around today is because breeders play God and selectively breed for it.

    even if this supposedly Desert female has living offspring it won't change the fact that dozens have tried before and had no luck with producing viable clutches .. maybe this is the miracle Desert girl but in my eyes Desert females are still not producing viable clutches, if there is one exception or not

    Well it's not one, but more than one, but it's a valid point to say that a few desert females laying viable clutches do not a viable breeding morph population make.

    It will take more than that to prove that desert females can breed successfully.

    And I understand that ONE doesn't really affect the price on the females(pet quality), but my comment was specifically if it's been figured out how to breed desert females, or if it's proven that they are viable(not just this one), then I'd be happy despite the prices going up(IF they were now potential breeders rather than just a couple flukes). Otherwise I may still be getting myself a non-breeding desert female for a pet(it would go nicely with my non-breeding spider female, so to speak). I have a couple pets, and pretty snakes are pretty snakes.

    And I generally don't compare humans with animals. Obviously human women have a lot more resources to deal with having a baby if they have complications. You can't really compare a hatchling snake with a human baby in terms of worth and risk assessment, at least in my opinion.

    OP - Gratz on the clutch. I hope what you are looking for pips out. These are exciting times for you and your project. Now plan for the long road before you if a female desert hatches. Best of luck to you and the scale kids. :)

    Not so simple solution with a scammer. They can wrap a desert around another clutch of eggs.

    Hi,

    It was actually a genuine mistake - the clutches he was talking about were sired by a male desert but the person did not make that clear at the time.
