Did you keep your first baby you hatched out?

asking cause im not sure if i should sell mine or keep her. would love to hear what everyone here says about this!!!

I kept mine. She hatched last year my one out of two eggs that were good. It's a normal (picture in my signature)

cool! i also had 2 good eggs. both albinos 1 male and 1 female. Female came out first

I kept mine and she will lay for me this year. That makes me a snakes Grandpa!!!

haha awesome. im just a dad still!!!

My first was a female spider, and yes I kept her :)

plan to keep most if not all the females from my super pastel x normal clutch just can never have to many females lol

I plan to keep any females I hatch out this year

If your first out was a female Albino there should be no question whether or not you should keep her! Lol, you can never have too many females, especially morphs!

I kept my first out of the egg hatchling, she's an 09 yellowbelly due to drop her 6 eggs in 30 days or so.
I can't wait to be a proud snake grandpa :snake:

Hi,

I kept my first female hatchling.

She has already laid a clutch for me in the past and seems as though she still might go this year.

I have 1 hold back from each clutch starting from my first. This past season I was made into a snakes grandma. Kinda frightening. I love seeing an animal I hatched, raised, and now bred, and have babies from her, I'll be doing the same all over again!


Check out what's new on my website... www.Homegrownscales.com

I just hatched out my first clutch. I'd really like to keep one, but I really don't need another normal female, definitely no normals males, and I already have a vanilla male.

So, I won't be keeping any of my first. Space is a premium here, so I'll be waiting for morphs I need to keep a baby.

I kept my first.... and second.................. and thrid....................... and.................... god no wonder I'm broke!

I plan on keeping any females that crawl out of my clutch. And because I'd love to have another normal female produced from my very first Ball python [that is a normal female]. :P

No, I kept the best pastel female from my first clutch, not the first to hatch, lol.

I'm keeping the first that pipped ( she was shy coming out of the egg ) as she is a Super Cinnamon.

We kept our first BP that we produced...Of course our first egg to hatch contained twin females! We had to keep them both!

Yep! She was just a normal, but I couldnt let her go. Shes currently gravid for her first time too!

I breed hedgehogs so this kinda relates.

My male was 2 1/2 before he fathered his first litter, I have his 8 week old daughter bailey. I almost didnt keep her. Yesterday her dad was diagnosed with kidney failure. I cant tell you how SORRY I would have been had I NOT kept Bailey.

I hope to get one more litter out of him before he passes since its in early stages. But you dont have guarentees

Thanks for all the stories! So I think I've decided to keep the female. Ill post a pic later. Hr brother is gonna be up for sale for sure once he sheds and eats a bit. So cool to hear what everyones first born was!!!

I think ill keep most females I hatch out now

I have a male pastel and female cinny I hope to breed I'm the next couple years. I would love to keep the first one out for sentimental reasons. But if Its a male normal I probably won't lol.
