The worst odds ever?

[West Coast Jungle]

My worst odds were on my bumble bee project. It took 2 years and 3 different clutches to get 1 bee.

We had 18 eggs total. 17 made it full term and hatched, 9 normals, 3 spiders, 4 pastels and 1 bumble bee from spider to pastel breedings.

Random and OLD thread, but I'm curious. Did your odds ever improve?

My buddy bred a spider het. albino to a het albino. He produced both snakes so there was no way they were not hets. His results: 0 spiders, 0 albinos, 0 albino spiders, and 6 normals poss. het albino. Can't get much worse than that.

BURN!

OP, I bred an Albino x Spider het. Albino. Got 1.0 Albino, 1.2 Spider Albinos, 1.1 Normals het. Albino.

Joe's friend had bad bad odds, I had good GOOD odds. It's all random!

Our second year breeding we had 3 girls slug out. That was horrible disappointing, 20 slugs total. Also, one of the main things we wanted to produce was a Bee and we have yet to hatch one!

Last year, I bred a Pied to a Spider - looking for Spider het pieds. Got nine perfect eggs and all hatched. Number of Spider het pieds = 0. None, nada, zip. All het pieds. Sold them all off and just bought a Spied.

That's how you get things done I guess. Still not as fun as making your own, though!

Last year I bred my Pin to my big normal girl (picked her up as a 50% het pied back in 08) and got 7 eggs. Two eggs went bad, two of the hatchlings died in the egg (one normal, one nice looking pin) and of the remaining 3, one male pin and two male normals. At least you can say your normals are all 100% het albino lol.

was the het 100%.

It can happen to where you get nothing but more hets or you can get even split or all albinos. Joys of genetics.

He produced c∕̴ visual so technically whether he knew or not, it was 100% het for Albino.

Het clown to het clown. They didn't produce a live clown until their 4th or 5th clutch (I can't remember which). I knew they were hets because they produced a full term dead baby in their 2nd clutch which was a clown, but then it was several more years before I got a live one.

I bred a visual male clown to a female mojave 3 seasons ago. mojave het clowns were 3k and didn't get any mojaves out of 6 eggs. 50/50 chance to get a mojave per egg. everything was 100% het clown.

My first year breeding - two pastel clutches with a total of 10 eggs between the two. 1.1 pastels, 4.4 normals.

This year, a GORGEOUS clutch of 7 eggs - beautiful, plump, pearly white eggs.....not a vein in a single egg - a beautiful infertile clutch.

Feeling better now?

Did you Made omelet ???

But Seriously... and On Topic i took like 5 years For Brian from BHB to Prove Sunset ball as genetic recessive... and He paid 75k for imported Snake...

I believe he said in one of very early episodes of SnakeBytes.tv that he took him 4 years year to year breeding of 100% het for albino to finally produce albino from that pairing... So Yea... Odds sucks sometimes especially if You thinking about making some extra cash or at least get your invested money back.. but hey... next year that could be 6 albinos and 1 het .. You never Know
