First Clutch of the Season! (04/22/06) *DUW*
Came as a definite suprise today after only 45 days of incubation at 83F...I was thinking that they had about two weeks left...boy was I wrong. Definitely a great suprise to find after I get home from a fun filled herp day!
The clutch was from my DH LV Albino/Blizzard Pair...
Here's what came out of it!

They are all set up in their hatchling shoebox in my new rack, and doing great.
What a great end to a day. :)

Oohhh, Jason! I didn't even know leos could look like those! LOL Do they hold those colors/patterns into adulthood?
Super-Congrats on those little babies! What a day you've had!!

What a day indeed!
The albino should carry the colors into adulthood, the pattern may change a bit as he/she grows but it will stay a "jungle" pattern. I'm hoping that the blizzard will get lighter and whiter with age.

Great looking babies! 45 days at 83 deg.? Usually 45 days is standard for incubating males at 89 deg., I would double check the temps on that incubator! ;)

Wow very very nice Jason and congrats again (you had a darn fine day!) That albino is gorgeous as is the blizzard, can't wait to see more pics as they mature.

I have a coralife digital thermometer on the incubator and that read a constant 83 deg, which I double checked with the use of a PE2 Heat gun. Within the last two weeks or so I did up the temps in the incubator to 88F so that may have made a difference.

I was just making my rounds for cleaning today, and I pulled the babies out to take a look at them a little bit closer.
I know that I correctly id'd the blizzard...but the thing that is stumping me is the little LV "albino" I thought that normally LV albino leos have the classic red eyes, well this little one has definite stark black eyes. The closest thing that I can find under the LV bloodline with black eyes are the LV Sunglows. Any leo people know what it could be just by looking at her?
Her parents are double het for blazing blizzard and albino...
Let me know what you think, cause honestly idk...:confused: I like her completely black eyes though.
