Cool deal! Looks like you got the best of both worlds!

Pictures don't seem to be coming up. And it tends to happen quit often when multiple males get to the female.

3 normals, pastel, 2 lessers, and a bee? Sweet

Thanks.
Actually they are mojave and pastave.
Didn't expect the bee came out at all after I cut first egg and saw mojave..

Congrats on the clutch but not odd at all. Quite a few animals can have more than one baby, clutches, litters or what ever sired by different males at one time.

Including humans! :D

Just curious if u could post a pic of the mojave male that sired this clutch congrats on this clutch btw

I guess the Mojave is in fact a Lesser. I can see a Lesser and a Lesser/Pastel, but nothing close to a Mojave.

I agree no mojaves in that clutch. I see a Lesser and a Lesser Pastel.

I will post mojave male tonight when I get home..
He is the sire of two clutches this year..
I bred him to a normal female as well and got 6 eggs. 5 of them are mojave.
Thanks

Here is the picture of male

uh oh, i feel a back story coming on. lol! :cool:

Multiple males can sire a clutch.. What can NOT happen is getting a baby with the genes of two males.. For instance, you could never have gotten a lesser bee (lesser spider) because the males genes will not combine.. You CAN have an 8 egg clutch with 3 sires and get morphs from each sire tho.. It happened to me one year..

I bred a pinstripe, a woma, a blue eyed leucistic (which was a combo of lesser and Russo) to a normal.. Thats 4 different genes from the males. I ended up getting 1 lesser, 1 Russo, 2 womas, 3 pinstripes, and 1 normal..

The snake has multiple follicles inside her. Multiple eggs. You can have 8 eggs and 8 different males. If one sperm from each of those males makes it into just 1 egg before any of the others, then you could have 8 different fathers. The males genes will never combine though. The closest you could ever get to that would be twins inside one egg, but one is a spider, and the other is a lesser. 2 sperm from 2 different males can fertilize 1 egg and you would have fraternal twins.
