Just hatched out my first clutch of Super Pastels, I am pretty thrilled with the snakes and the odds. Pastel x Pastel Breeding, got 7 eggs. 3 supers, 3 pastels and one that looks like a super, but I have not seen its head, so I cannot be sure. So far 1.0 supers and 1.2 pastels are out of the egg.

I am thrilled with how clean they are. In person, the Pastels are almost as light as the super. The moms sort of reduced pattern came through really nicely on them, which makes me really excited for the Bumblebees we are going to try for this year.
I have not gotten a light tent yet. Just used a piece of which poster board with a 100w light aimed at the ceiling. Pictures came out okay.
Almost forgot, these eggs were in a fire at the store where I work(the incubator there is nice and big) last week. I was terrified when I pulled them out of the incubator and they were only 68 degrees, but I guess they were far enough along that they were okay. Had one other clutch in the incubator, it was only 2 weeks in, so I am less hopeful, but no rotting yet. I am keeping my fingers crossed.
Hope everyone is having a good end/beginning to your breeding year
