Well

I went to check on the eggs to see if anything has changed and to see how a green spot was doing on an egg and I noticed something.

Congrats Aric! What an exciting thing to have your first eggs ever pipping.

Congrads :banana:

Congrats Aric. All that worrying you did for nothing. Everything will be alright. Let's see some more pics.

Congrats that is the first pic I ever seen of a lil one making his/ her way into the world. My Dad's boa we used to have when I was little had 22 live babies and I missed that too when it happened. Hopefully when I get better I can look into breeding Bratty she has already went through one mating season, and I didn't breed her. Looking for a good male to breed her with.

congrats on the little one keep us up to date.. Love to see how the little guy turnout.

Awe, I am so happy for you Aric!

Its a girl. The little one left the egg this morning and its a girl!! None of the other eggs have pipped yet but seeing this little one out is keeping me patient waiting for the others.

I love the pattern and her striped tail. Mom also had a striped tail so I dont know if that has anything to do with it.

Congrats!! :clap: And best wishes for the rest of those eggs!

Nice looking girl ;)

Congrats to ya! :)

Thanks yall, I wish the others would go ahead and pip ;)

I forgot to add this little girls weight is a whopping 48 grams:carouse:

Well that one is still the only one to pip. All the other eggs still look good thought.

So shiny! grats!

Have the rest of the eggs pipped yet? If not you might want to cut a small slit in them.Your choice on this ;)

nope, no others have pipped yet. I cut 2 of the eggs after talking to Bob clark for a while about it. One of the eggs thats left has gone bad, and now im down to 3 left and the 2 I cut have an alive snake in them. I cut one yesterday and one today. How long should they remain in the eggs after I cut?

Sorry to hear about another egg lost.When my babies pip the eggs they can stay in them for a couple days at least.They have to tease you even more :P .

Oh she's lovely Aric! Congrats on the little female (you should call her Eve...first female and all that LOL). Sorry about the lost egg but two more babies alive in their eggs is good news!

thanks, one of the babies I can see in the egg doesnt look fully developed yet or might have something going on with its pattern.

Aric,dont think the worst yet it might just be a crazy pattern.I hope its just a crazy pattern as we have had way to many bad stories lately:( .I know its part of life but gee enough is enough.We need positive things or else some newbies might give up wanting ball pythons,thinking everything bad happens to ball pythons.Keep us posted

How exciting; what a beauty-full little hatchling there. :)
I hope those others get out soon and stop keeping you waiting.

thanks Joe and Jen, I went ahead and cut the last egg today and I dont really know if that one is alive. When I cut the other eggs the "yolk" was runny and looked ok but the last one I cut doesnt have much "yolk" and the "yolk" thats left is really sticky and there are veins but they are all black. The other 2 keep switching positions throughout the day but neither have poked their heads out yet.

Aric,when you cut the eggs you will get a little runny slime like stuff.The last egg might have absorbed his yolk allready.When you touch them do the babies move(wondering about the last two you cut today) around?

The one I cut today didnt move, maybe I should use a q-tip and touch him with that to see if he moves. The other 2 have alot of slime and ALOT or nice big red veins but the one I cut today has no slime (I figured it absorbed it) but the veins I can see are black and look dired up.

Hmmm, yea touch them to see if anyone moves.

I used a q-tip and the 2 I cut yesterday and the day before moved but the one I cut today didnt seem to move any at all. Its been 66 days, they must be going for the record lol

Sweet cant wait for the pics.

I cant wait for it to come all the way out, its got a sweet blushing spot right in the middle of its head.

Aric, how are they doing?

another one just left the egg this morning, one still in the egg but it pipped yesterday. The one that left the egg today is a male and hes got a real nice pattern to him and an awsome stripe with just a few breaks in it.

Oooooo very pretty, I think they're just the cutest when they just hatched.

Nice looking male Aric,it looks like he almost wanted to be a striper lol.

Aric,
That little male looks awesome. I love his side pattern. Take some more pics of him after he sheds.
Congrats,

thanks all, the last one left the egg this morning and its a female, so the total count is 1 male and 2 females. Atleast I got my females. I think this one wanted to be a striper also.
