Clutch #8

[muddoc]

We got clutch #8 today. It was from breeding my VPI Axanthic male to a 66% Poss. Het. Axanthic female. We got 6 eggs that weighed in 533 grams. This is our second clutch from the same pairing, with one more due tommorrow. Hopefully we'll get to see some black and silver babies this year. The pic is a little bluury, as this female was real fiesty and was trying to bite my wife the whole time she was pulling the eggs. Here she is.


Thanks for looking,

Thanks Cue and Adam. Here is the best pic I have of him right now. I really need to try and get some better pics of him. Axanthics are really hard to photograph. Enjoy


That is a pic of him with a Het. Female.

Thanks for all the good luck guys. Jo, actually that is not the mom in the picture with the Axanthic. That is a definite Het. female that I got from Brian at BHB. Wehn we got her, she was only 40 grams, and was not near big enough to breed this past year. She is doing good and should be ready this year. The three females that my Axanthic bred to were all 66% Poss. Hets.
Good Luck to all this year,
