Picked up a micro probe so I could double check my "females" and here are the confirmed results. In all I got 3.0 super fire, 2.1 fire, 1.4 pastel, 1.0 normal, 1.0 firefly(not pictured) - none too shabby if you ask me!
The firefly from this clutch hatched out with a fair bit of yolk and hasn't shed yet. He's eaten 2 rat pinkies at least, much to my relief. I'll post some shots of him after he sheds out. The fire in this clutch took a hopper mouse no problem but has since refused 2 rat pinks. All the pastels are on rat pinkies without any refusals(amazing how much size difference 2 meals can make this early). I'll probably just let the fire mouse it up a bit before I switch - can't have him falling too far behind! Keeping the female pastel on the bottom and firefly male from this clutch.
These just shed out and are going to be offered their first meals this weekend. This picture turned out much better with a bit of cloud cover. I didn't have time to take the first clutch back out and even if I did the clouds prolly woulda cleared right up anyway. Keeping the top middle fire female and probably the bottom right super in this clutch.
