    now? ... nm, he cut us out

    lol

    Too funny! Also, I'm a *she* lol.

    Just thought I'd update everybody. The twins made their way out of the egg sometime during the night, I placed them in a bin w/ wet shop towel until everybody has shed out.

    The appear to be healthy and kink-free, which is what I was worried about. However they are VERY small, since they were in the smallest egg of the whole clutch, and there were two inside, I think they're about half the size of the other fatties. It also appears they did not absorb the entire yolk, as there is still a mass inside of the egg. They are quite skinny.

    I think I may even try to feed them a live rat pink before their first sheds, as they might be pretty hungry and for my own peace of mind, I'd like to put a few grams on them.

    I will definitely post some pics later tonight, I'm just charging the camera battery right now!

    When I was double checking them today, I did notice that on the very teeny tip of one of their tails, there is a small little nubbin. So that's a bit disappointing, but honestly it's barely noticeable!

    Here is another pic of them in the egg, tomorrow I am going to do a comparison of them with one of their siblings!

    That is AWESOME! Not very often that something makes me stop in my tracks but that picture sure did it. I've been impatiently waiting on some of mine to be old enough to breed and to see THAT as a possibility...that's awesome! And that makes me want mine to get to size all the more, lol! CONGRATULATIONS and best of luck with them! :gj:

    Nope, these ones looked different, though I wouldn't say that identical twin BPs have never been hatched, because I don't know!

    My theory is that each snake was in their own separate "sac" but were then *accidentally* shelled in the same egg. So I guess if you wanted to get really technical, you could say they're not actually twins, they are just 2 snakes that shared the same egg!
