    Beginners' Luck
    Well..I was speechless when I check on my YB x YB clutch this evening!! I had put her with quite a few fellas (variety is the spice of life and all that...actually, I had lost my pairing data).

    Well...this is what I peeped when I checked!!:O

    Thanks for the Congrats everyone!

    Blackcrystal22: I usually mark each egg with the initial of the dam or a combination of the initials of the dam and sire. This was a YB x YB pairing..so that "I" was wishful projecting.:please: It worked!

    akaangela: Thanks for the offer, you are a true friend! I guess I am stuck with the fella since he/she won't come out until I promise he/she can stay!:rofl:

    Thanks..I think they are very good representatives..the yellow line along the dorsal appears unbroken,and the grey heads aren't too dark.:)

    Really, it was beginner's luck...I hope my luck holds out because i am attempting my two het Caramel Albinos this season! :banana:
