    Freshly Hatched Albino Clutch

    Well my het X het albino clutch hatched a few days ago. Overall I am very pleased with it. I really couldn't ask for much more out of a het X het clutch.

    2.2 Albinos
    0.5.1 66% Het Albinos

    Now here is the issue. The 0.0.1 is a little on the small side. It weighed 15 grams. This is the smallest ball python that I have ever seen! It looks like a baby corn snake. It is real thin, almost like it wasn't able to absorb the yolk completely. But basically it looks like it has the correct proportions, just smaller.

    I have taken a few pictures along one of its albino siblings. The albino weighs 64 grams.





    Let me know what your experiences are with little hatchlings. Should I expect it to live?

    Thanks,

    John

    I would think it would survive as long as you can get it to eat. Maybe try a little earlier to feed that one then you would the rest of the clutch.

    I just looked at my post and realized that there is nothing there for size comparison. So here is one more picture.

    OMG, it's so tiny and cute! I've heard of babies that size surviving, and sometimes even going on to be large adults... so I'd take the advice above, and hopefully the little one does fine. Looks healthy aside from the size, and that albino is really beautiful.

    0.1 Spotted Python, 1.1 Stimson's Pythons, 1.0 Jungle Carpet Python
    3.4 Corn Snakes, 1.1 Western Hognose Snakes, 1.2 cats, and 1.0 dog (47lb mutt)
