    That's what he told me. Oh, and those're the pastels. Mine will come soon...I hope.

    That, or I'll have to save up a few more hundred for a pastel.

    Re: Good Morning VA!!!
    thanks everyone, she is still going. i have to keep myself from bugging her too much.! lol


    mle, she was bred to my pastel.

    this girl was a monster feeder and messed up her tub 2-3 times a week, turned over the water bowl every other day. but you know what, this makes all that cleaning worth every bit!

    Congrats! You're so lucky, I want to wake up to see my snake hovering over 12 eggs. Not going to happen, since she's too young to breed, but you get my point. :P

    I think that's almost as painful a wait! Ophelia's got another year or so and some serious weight to put on before then. That, and I need to find a male. Hn. I wonder if I can talk Vaughn into lending me a male and...yeah. VAUGHN! I'm calling you tonight. AH!

    Congrats Vaughn! :clap: I guess you called in sick today? ;) She looks a bit deflated, but I guess that's expected after laying 13 eggs. :imslow: Wow! I'm so excited. It's nice to be able to live vicariously through you. ;)

    Re: Good Morning VA!!!
    (princess) my 4 yr old named her! is doing great. she took a small rat today. 13 eggs, all look good. i purchased her last year at 1700 grams, she ate like crazy for me and got up 2700 grams at breeding season. i only feed once a week, but some get multiples at that time. this was her first clutch, the guy i bought her from bought her as a juvie and raised her for a bit. if she doesn't put all her weight back on i'll just skip a year with her, worst case she'll be huge the next season! watching her from start to finish was very cool!!!

    anyone in the market for a pastel? lol
