Yup - that happened to me my first season. Two lemon pastel clutches. One clutch was six eggs - two lemons and four normals. The other clutch was four eggs - all normals.

Took two years, but the odds gods finally swung my way (last year was also a bad odds year for me).

8 eggs...7 normals and only one pastel

be happy that they hatched and are healthy......i lost several "important" clutches this year.

thats ruff dude, its very discouraging. but dont give up, thats a bad season for sure. but keep rolling, next year you'll do alot better :]

[Blue Apple Herps]

Yeah, that sucks. But its part of the game. I was actually looking back on this, and I've had good years where I had incredible odds, others where I didn't. What I noticed is that if I averaged it out over several years, pretty much all of the odds lined up with what they were supposed to be.

Just be thankful that you got a healthy clutch, and that nothing went wrong with your females, and they'll be around another year to breed. There's always next year and in this hobby you have to take the good with bad. Good luck with them!
