    Surprise Clutch
    This clutch came from a granite female who I found and rescued. She was kept with a male Ball for those three or four years of her life. I didn't know she was gravid when I got her, just that she wasn't eating. After about a month of owning her, I found her coiled around a clutch of 5 eggs, and she's been a mouse junkie ever since(flying out of her tub, LOL).

    So here they are, I think they are 1.5, but I'll check again after they shed.

    Hey,


    So does this make her a "genetic granite" and mean you might have a fair shot at the super granite?:eek: Which one is the lucky lil oedipus? (sp)

    Oh and by the way - you are taking killer pictures of these lil folks.

    Haha, yep Chris, these were all successfully incubated with the CueBator 8000 :) It worked perfect on a Johnson Controls Tstat. No fluctuations.

    I don't know if this makes her a genetic granite or not? I'm going to put her with my Yellowbelly this coming season and see what happens. She'll be more than ready with the way she is eating and gaining back her weight.

    Thanks about the pictures. I use a Minolta DiMage Z2, and just love it!

    Congrats Becky. They look great. If that sex ratio is correct, you made out like a bandit, and even have a male to breed back to mom. That collection is growing quick, especially if you continue to keep everything that hatches. LOL.

    Hehe, if I had that choice, believe me, everything would stay here. I hope I got all of the popping done correctly, as I only saw 'penes on one. It's nice to know that they are this dark BEFORE shedding, so afterwards they will be even darker.

    I think I'm only keeping back 2 female pastels and all of this clutch. All of the others are either spoken for or are being sold.

    The first clutch that hatched with those 4 female Pastels STILL hasn't shed out yet. Only the one female normal has shed and ate... Little turds. *starts charging rent*
