1 in 7.. I can live with that!

So, breed my het pied girl to my double het albino pied male, on June 30th Taki gave me a clutch of 7 eggs. With a 25% chance per egg of a pied it was not great odds, but still a decent chance. Fast forward to this week, Monday the 27th the first one pipped, not a pied. By Tuesday morning 3 more had pipped, still no pied. Today I woke up and the last 3 still hadn't pipped on their own, today was their formal hatch date. I couldn't take it any more and cut the last 3 first thing this morning. Normal...... Normal.............. Pied! The very last egg has my pied in it! Now it just has to come out on its own, and be healthy and eat.

Congratulations! Don't worry, the odds have a way of balancing out from one year to the next. I like to think of poorer odds as saving up my luck for the right clutch! :gj:

Sweet! Congrats! And its possible het albino!

Make that 50% het albino. Here's hoping that it's a female so that you can put her back to your male and see if she's het albino!

Congrats!! Gotta love those Pieds !

Congrats!

hey now, 1/8 chance of it being a female pied pos het, you can still win here :)

Love it! I always love seeing that white in a possible Pied egg. To me, that is one of my favorite things about ball pythons! Congratulations.

Congrats Sheri!!!!!!!! So cooool. I know you've been waiting patiently for this. I bet you feel like a million bucks.

Regards,

Lol, I am sooooo psyched right now! I would love for it to be female, but I would be just as happy with a male since all I have is hets and poss hets at this point. My first pied, and I hatched it myself! As soon as it actually hatches.

Save the best for last congrats

Yup all the babies are 50% poss. I hope its female but I will be happy if its a boy as well, would make it easier to check the albino thing out though!

Thanks! Lol, I like that shirt too, I didn't even realize that was the one I was wearing until I saw the picture. Turned out rather cute = ).

Give me one sec and I'll post a few more pics of the clutch and the pied today. Still in her/his egg.... Silly baby.

Pictures from this morning.

The 4 that hatched so far. 3.1 66% het pied 50% het albino.

The pied today. Lots and lots of orange showing today = D

Pied came out just after I left for work, darn baby. The next 7 hours will drag. Lucky my husband sent me a picture, then my sister went to my house and took pictures for me! Neither is comfortable sexing it so that will still have to wait. Anyway, here is my first pied!

And they are all finally out! Looks like I have 3.3 66% het pied 50% het albinos and .1 pied 50% het albino! I plan to hold back the pied and all 3 poss het girls from this clutch and my yellowbelly girl from my first clutch. 5 holdbacks out of 12 eggs, things should be really interesting in 3 years.

All 7.

awesome hopefully in a few years you got a little albino pied crawling out. congrads.

She's really gorgeous - congrats!! :gj:

As for the rest, you know the light-colored & fat-bellied normal? Call it a random hunch, but I predict that one is a het pied... is it male or female?

The right bottom one? Sadly it's a male. He does stand out though.
