Babies have hatched!

Sadly, 2 eggs did not make it but 5 did .

First Slit:


Second Slit:


Pippers (I let all babies pip on their own--I do not cut eggs unless I suspect a problem):








Peeking In (the albino had already slit the shell, though I did make the slit a bit wider so I could see in--I suspected this one might be an albino during candling, and I was right! ):




Hatchlings:
66% Possible Het Female 1:

Albino Female (sooooo happy about this one--I wanted an albino girl ) aka Persephone:


Clutch 12-1:


Not really any "blackbacks" in this clutch--the male has somewhat of a blackback, but not really. He did get some neat side patterns from his father though. Albino did not wind up a blackback, but she did have some pretty neat gold striping on her neck and tail (typical for the tail, I know, but hers is a tad longer than typical). Not sure where the gold striping came from, but glad for it nonetheless. I got what I wanted out of this clutch (an albino girl), so I certainly have no reason for complaint!
