I have a friend interested in a female, other than that however I haven't even thought about selling them yet. Can't count my eggs before they hatch. ;)

If you cut them open won't it affect them in anyway??

I really appreciate the kind comments everyone, this is my favorite part of keeping ball pythons! Makes all the feeding and poop cleaning worthwhile! Thanks again! :salute:

They're far enough along now it won't negatively affect them. Although I do recommend to most that if they aren't comfortable cutting that they refrain from doing so.

I actually mark safe areas to cut that have a lack of main veins/vessels in the egg, as to leave those alone. Whether or not at this point cutting them would affect the babies, I don't know...but I'd rather not risk cutting large numbers of veins.

sweet odds. nice lessers.

Congrats Jason great odd's can't wait to see them out of the egg.

Grats!

Thanks guys, appreciate all the comments! I'll be sure to post some updated pictures as they crawl out! :salute:

Wow!!!! You must have made some big sacrifices to the ball python gods this year! Congrats!!! :gj:

Dibs, on all of them :P

Beautiful, congratz!

Well congrats :cool:

Congrats on the odds!

Not that I know of... bought the mom as an adult normal. But the babies do have funky patterns. Some are real reduced and some are busy like the female...

I'm keeping that male to breed back to mom this next season if he's up to it, so see if mom's banding is recessive.

Let me know if you get another female lesser. ;)

Those are some hot lessers! Especially the keepers!

Yeah, the pattern is very different on the two out, AND the coloring is just out of this world from what ive seen in baby lessers.

Wow those are some awsome lessers how did you like your odds 4 for 6 not bad huh?
