    Great clutch! And those normals will color up a lot after a shed or two; I can see why they were throwing you a curve ball at first.

    I've found that, at least for me, its easier to wait until after they shed. I used to sex right out of the egg, but always ended up "female" heavy. When I'd resex after their 1st shed, I'd get more normal ratios. I suspect that maybe the skin that's getting ready to shed somehow can make it trickier for the hemipenes to pop out?

    Or maybe it's all in my head that it's easier once they've shed. Regardless, I just wait until after they shed before I try to sex them. Just my 2¢.
