Hey I was just wonder how common it is to see deformities in hatchlings? Not in like morphs with known issues.
I was just wondering because this year I hatched a Calico Spider OD and she was born with only one eye. Pairing was Calico Spider x Super OD Pinstripe.
I dont think it was incubation related or genetic. The parents have had great babies with no problems before. The rest of that clutch was perfect. Incubator temps were spot on the entire incubation. I use a ve200 on a c serpents hot box Incubator. Temps are between 89/90 and never fluctuate more then half a degree.
Anyway not really trying to figure out why just wondering how common deformities like that occur. Ive seen bps with no eyes before. This is my third season with and I've never personally experienced this and was just curious. Maybe someone with more experience can chime in.
Also incase anyone is wondering she is doing great eating like a champ and is an absolute sweetheart. Gonna keep he as a pet and take her with to shows with me.
Thanks,
Sean
