Re: Some assistance needed from those who have hatched BEL's
Just a slight correction for those guessing a mojo-spider. That can't happen. The mother is a lesser. The two potential fathers were mojave and spider. Only ONE snake can be the father, so no baby in this clutch could inherit mojo and spider characteristics at the same time.
I don't get too excited about guessing at least until the babies are fully hatched. I'm looking forward to seeing pictures of it, though!

This is correct and I'm trying not to get too excited because this baby is underdeveloped as of right now it is smaller and has a very large yolk sac and still in fluid. It is still showing very red and healthy veins and the liquid is still clear. I am leaving it alone and hoping it was just behind for some reason as all but 2 have come out of the eggs. I do hope that this little one makes it as that is my first concern.
Now as far as what it is... :confused: No idea... but it appears to only have a yellow stripe with purple striping on each side with a orange/peach body color.... for those making guesses it looks more like a G-stripe or super stripe as far as pattern... Here are some update pics (as best I could through the small hole) and some pics of the lesser bee that was in the clutch as well..

This is one of the reasons I enjoy this hobby so much..;) I won't know more until it comes out of the egg (hopefully healthy) and see it completly. I welcome any advise or comments on this....
