    What you see isn't always what you get

    So I bred a lesser male to a CH female..She gave me 3 egg's one infertile. On day 55+/- I clipped egg's

    Egg #1 Normal

    Egg #2 Lesser

    Egg #3.. what the hell is that thing




    Well I called around I emailed pics to everyone I knew.. everyone told me the same thing.."WAIT TILL IT COMES OUT"

    A few days later I open the bator and it has crawled out dragging it's entire yolk with it

    So I snatched it up put it in a moist Tupperware bowl on paper and waited.

    Sunday night it was looking weak and not doing so well.

    Monday morning I checked.. It wasn't breathing and was limp.. Damn it died. I was late for work so I tossed it back in the bator I wanted some Pics before I got rid of the body.

    Come home last night AFTER TELLING EVERYONE IT HAD DIED open the tub...low and behold 99.995% of all it's yolk was gone and it was moving and breathing even balling up, even peed on me..

    So here she is now that she's gotten some nutrition and seems to be doing way better..It's still touch and go but I have good hopes for this one.

    Yea as far as I know it's just a Lesser..those pics are of the same snake now.. It's amazing how much they can change even over the course of a day or two..

    Aww, she (or he) is beautiful! Congratulations on her, I hope she fully absorbs the yolk and grows up to be a beautifully healthy snake

    Hold on to what is good
    even if it is a handful of earth.
    Hold on to what you believe
    even if it is a tree which stands by itself.
    Hold on to what you must do
    even if it is a long way from here.
    Hold on to life
    even when it is easier letting go.
    Hold on to my hand
    even when I have gone far away from you.

    She/he is amazing! The pattern is just exceptional. I am so glad it absorbed its yolk for you. Keeping my fingers crossed that it will do well for you!

    She is B-E-A-utiful. I'm just glad you decided to wait to ship her to me Ed. I'm in no hurry, once she has had a meal or two you can send her.
