What scares me most about breeding

The only thing that works is de-sensitivity training. You must expose yourself to at least 24........er, 50........ no wait, 100 babies per season to allow your overactive sympathetic nervous system (the gas pedal) to be compensated by your parasympathetic NS (the brake). Thus, you may achieve some sort of equilibrium where you still cry and can't stop smiling, but at the same time have the ability to 'function' (ie get at least 1 full hour of sleep a night).


Start by browsing pictures of clutches hatching. Take deep breaths. Good Luck.

Oh man. The feeling of seeing those little heads pooching out.. it is indescribable. We hatched our first ones in '07, and a cool additional thing is, Mark's daughter was staying over the night after we slit them, and they were just coming out! The biggest real "danger" is to resist the temptation to yank the little snakes out of the eggs and see their patterns!

I`m going to go nuts when my eggs hit the bator. I`ll probably check on them every 5 minutes..

Very helpful advice! A slow and careful desensitization process to gradually reduce the danger of high cuteness intakes.
