    My My...An Unexpected Clutch
    So, it is feeding day today. Went to put a rat in to one of my bigger girls tubs and lo and behold she's sitting a giant clutch of eggs! Totally caught me by surprise. Why? Because I haven't bred her to anything. Ever. I got her last year from a friend of mine who bred her to an Enchi YB. She came gravid and produced a good clutch for me last year. So I can only assume that she must have retained sperm from the previous year.

    Well, gotta go get the incubator fired up.

    Actually she stopped eating about a month or so ago. I thought it was because she was in shed. She just shed 2 or 3 weeks ago weeks ago.

    Well I know why now.

    And yes, she is a normal.

    Re: My My...An Unexpected Clutch
    Update: 9 fertile looking eggs are now in the incubator. Too bright to candle so I'll check them all tonight. And the guy I got her frmo said he only bred her to the Enchi YB so maybe that is what I'll get again. Last year she also had 9 eggs that gave me 2 Enchi YBs, 6 Enchi's and 1 normal. So we'll see what happens.

    Update 2:

    At first candling,3 of the eggs don't appear to have veins. Will leave them in and keep an eye on them.
