My Sexy Senior Citizen makes me proud...

While I was away whitewater rafting this weekend one of my clutches decided to hatch. I bred my 21 year old normal (Maple) to my Cinny male and Lemon Pastel Male. She gave me 10 good eggs, but one went bad after a couple of weeks and another went bad right before they were due.

Out of the eight eggs I ended up with 1.1 Cinnies, 1.1 Lemon Pastels and 3.1 Normals. A little heavy on the twigs and berries, but I'm happy.

Fortunately I have a wonderful wife that went from ophidiophobe to ophidiophile in only two years. She bathed them and set them up in the baby rack all snug-like. She was worried about one of the normals that was bleeding a little from its umbilical, but she contacted Adam and he eased her worries. ( Adam!)

Here's a pic of one of the normals, pastels, and cinnies. I can't seem to get Balls to cooperate while posing. They're either doing their best basketball impersonation, or they're sprinting away.

Wow Lawrence, even if you were male heavy that's quite an interesting clutch. They all look great too, even if mom should be in a geriatric ward!

Thanks. And I'll pass on the kudo's to my wife, Judy. I REALLY appreciate being able to take some time off during such a critical time and not having to worry (too much).
