Aww they are so cute!!! I love the first few pics with all the little heads poking out of their eggs. I've actually never seen burm hatchlings until your pics, it's amazing that they are so tiny and grow to be so huge!! Good luck with them and thank you for sharing them!!

Very nice pics, they look great. How many hatchlings did you get in that clutch? I'm hoping for my first ever burm clutch this year. Could you tell me what some of the signs of a gravid female are?

That was a clutch of 69 eggs.
If your female is gravid she'll stop eating, she may "roll". There are lots of different signs-did you see tehm breed and lockup?

They should be out next week-can't wait.
All these babies and we still have a feamle that hasn't even laid her eggs yet.

Wow, 69 is a lot of eggs. Thats just a few less then my total number of ball python eggs all last year from all my ball clutches combined.

Well, she has quit eating. And she's been doing this weird thing like she's coiled up and jerking like she's incubating eggs, but there are no eggs yet. I did see them locked up several times, here is a thread with some pics.

I really hope I get some this year as I've never produced burms yet. Congrats on all your clutches, I hope all of them are as successful as your first.
