Heartbreak............and triumph. {GRAPHIC PICTURE WARNING}

First: Twisted cords? I've hatched out over 1000 ball pythons eggs and NEVER have I seen a twisted cord. You people worry me...
Next, Gale; You can take this any way you want, but unfortunately, this entire season for you has been a wonderful education for those reading NOT to do what you've done; from cutting to early, to ripping holes in your eggs, temp spikes and horrifically deformed babies that weren't culled. It's sad that it all happened during the same season, but I really do hope that everyone can learn from your mistakes.
Mostly you.
Good luck next year.

Why does it not surprise me to see a post from you that screams "I know more than you and am better than everyone else"?

I, too, had a baby that had a twisted umbilical cord this season that didn't make it. To err is human, which from all your posts I see clearly you are not.
