Bela laid!

I knew that i was itching to get outta work today for a good reason! Here's what I found. They were laid between 10am and 4pm eastern time.
I am so touched.. I raised this little niblet from near-hatchling size (CBB, Alex Hue, 2003) to mommyhood.. awesome feeling :)
I am not sure that she's done; the most recent one by her tail still looks soft... I am giving it a while before I go in.
The dad is 90% likely to be my Pastel.. but there's a teeny chance that my Spider fathered them!

She's going to be a force to reclon with; I have band-aids ready..

Congrats! Yeah I'd leave her alone for a few more hours just to make sure she is done laying.

Congrats.:D


I hope you get both pastels and spiders.:rockon: :carrot: :carrot:

Now did you remember to get the weights of the eggs and momma and candle for veins before a bunch of clamouring forumites start baying for the information and pictures? :P

I just candled the free-sitting egg; the others are all joined but it has veins! My scale is out of commission right now..

Congrats Jen!!!

TickTock :nerd:

:rofl: Just be carefull about telling people the babies are due almost on the wedding day - you might get funny looks.:P

Oh Jen they look wonderful. Bela has always been my personal favorite of your collection and I've enjoyed watching her grow these past couple of years. She's a lovely momma snake, congrats!

Very nice. Congrats. i hope you do get spiders and pastels.

Thanks! The only babies we are having in August are snakes! (and pobably rats..)
Thanks too Jo. Bela is really special in some way of her own; that's true :) She thanks you for your compliments.

Congrats Jen. Those eggs look great. I am sending all of the Spider vibes I can muster. Pastels would be good too, but I love to see you hatch some Spiders this year.

Jen,


Bela is one of my personal favorites in your collection as well and I'm thrilled to see that she laid for you! Can't wait to see the babies!!!

Thanks! This morning I looked paranoidly into the incubator.. and the eggs are still there. ;)
I think that she's perfect for a Spider pairing because like my Spider, she has no alien-head spots (all right, she has one spot.. but still..)

Congrats Jen...your incubator is filling up fast. :D

:carrot: *sends Jen some Spider vibes* :carrot:

awesome.
i cant wait to see some pics

I offered Bela a lower-medium-sized rat just now. Bam, she took it right away! So much for motherhood and pining for lost eggs.. it's food time!
