    I'd like to take this time to thank all of you here on BP.net. If it wasn't for you guys, I wouldn't be where I am today. I'd still have my snake in a glass tank with an unregulated heat source and dial thermometers. You guys set me straight and gave me all the tools and knowledge I needed to get where I am. I learned so much from you guys and its made this process so much easier for me. I knew exactly what to do when those eggs hit the ground. I feel really proud of myself and my snake Eero, The one who started it all :)

    Here she is back in 2008 shortly after I got her.

    And here is me wearing a crazy outfit with my baby!!

    I can't believe its already been over 4 years since I got her. Time flies!!!

    THANKS EVERYONE!!

    awesome, and congratz, you never forget your first ones.

    ETA: you think waiting for mom to drop is a wait, just wait and see how it drives you while they incubate. LOL

    Congrats on the clutch and 7 is a great number for any clutch. Keep us posted on the progress and how little your nails get from all the impatient biting before they hatch. :P

    I kicked the nail biting habit long ago! You guys will for sure see lots of updates on these guys, probably more when they pip. Time to mark 55 days on my calendar!

    Ok, I have to know.

    What kind of containers are you using for your eggs? And where on earth did you find them??

    Hi guys! The eggs are doing great :) candling nicely with lots of movement! They are a little bit dimply, but my humidity is perfect so I'm just letting them be. They seem completely fine otherwise.

    The containers I used are Rubbermaid salad keepers! I got them at the grocery store as they are the only size that fits in my incubator.

    Snapped this picture this morning! With a little over a week to go until day 55, the eggs are starting to dimple.

    I'm so excited!!! Kinda pissed about the timing though, I'm leaving saturday to visit my family in Michigan, and I will be getting back on **DAY 54** aaahh!!!!

    Its okay though, there will be someone home to keep an eye on the eggs :) I am going to speed like none other on my way back!!!



    Aaaaand My pastel is looking like she will lay a clutch the week after, and I have another normal that is having her pre-lay shed right now! Hooray for babies!!

    Thanks guys!! I'm trying really hard to be patient.. its tough!! Surprisingly, the 55 day wait wasn't that bad. It was just easy to leave them alone and check once a week... but these last 3 days have been killer!!

    I candled on saturday and I saw some obvious patterns.. so I know they aren't all normals at least! haha
