First Clutch Ever HATCHING!!!

[LGL]

Hey! I did a breeding loan with Jim Heyl (Over The Hill Reptiles and co-runner of the Rocky Mountain Reptile Expo) this year, and got a clutch of 7 eggs from one of my 2500g females and his Mojave male on 6/11/08. Today is day 58, so I was going to call him to see if they were pipping yet, and he ended up calling me saying that they've been pipping and should be out sometime tonight!! I'm really hoping that we get good odds!

Anyway, here are pics (sorry about the quality, I forgot my camera when I went to see them and had to use my phone):






Sorry!! I don't have pics of them hatching since the Jim has the eggs. I took these pics of the clutch on day 32 ...

Jim is going to try to send some pics to me tonight, so I might have pics of them hatching that I can post.

Congratulations, Eric! Can he tell yet how many mojaves there are?

They're all out now (except one, which I guess was an empty egg?? The egg was shriveled the past few days and there was no hatchling...??).

Anyway, really bad odds on this one. Mojave x Normal: 7 egg clutch- 1 Mojave, 5 Normals, and 1 empty egg... I'm disappointed as I as hoping for 4 Mojos out of the 7 egg clutch and we didn't even get half that.

Well at least we got 6 healthy hatchlings!
