I know it’s been a long time since posting, but I’m back! I’ve been swamped with a new job, new responsibilities, rescuing horses, and getting the whole breeding season down over here at AK!
But I’m super excited to say that I’m going to have 5 clutches this season, and I have a possibility to add 7 more at the end of the year (but I think it will really be in 2022 when those clutches go - so woohoo!)
Anyways, I didn’t want to make a new topic for each clutch I’m going to have this season. So I’m going to use this little thread to post my 2021 clutches in here (and probably will update for 2022) so that way I’m not taking over the BP section and being a demon. Most snake will be available on my MM page.
So without further ado here is my first clutch: Raven Lesser x Orange Dream Pinstripe
Egg 1: Male, Raven Lesser OD Pinstripe (World’s First)
I cut clutch #3 a few days ago. It was my first import clutch with the Orbit gene. Our of 9 eggs, only 5 survived. I had three mold starting around day 36. Two of the babies were completely deformed, one egg was just solid, and the fourth baby died of a wrapped umbilical cord. Still beating myself up over it by not cutting a couple days earlier. Anyways, one baby has already crawled out of the egg so we’ll see what else decides to crawl out.
My WC import finally laid a solid 4 eggs. She was bread to just a single gene clown male. Hopefully when it comes time to cut that clutch I have a cool new gene to name, and if not, several years to see if it’s recessive ha-ha.
My third import, the Twister gene, laid 6 big eggs yesterday and 1 slug. Each egg is over 100grams so we’re killing it right now. I think this is my last clutch for 2021, but I could have a surprised by Christmas if I’m lucky, ha-ha.
Thanks to everyone for the continued support! It means a lot to me
They look great!! Don’t you love it…when you have more genes in the pairing it almost looks like you have those surprise egg’s with the little toys inside😄 Same mum, same dad but the offspring is so different and still all are really beautifull.
Sorry to hear four eggs went bad…but on the positive, five did survive. Unfortunally we can only do the best but we are still playing with nature and somethings are beyond our control.
Will be waiting for the pictures of the thirth one. You have a good thing going there😃
I also had a surprise clutch this morning from a female who locked up twice in May, stopped eating (so I stopped pairing) and I came to find her on eggs this morning! So I’ll be adding that one at the end of the year! I am still like shaking and excited from it (and a bit nervous lol).
The pairing is Mojo Twister x Super Pastel Leopard
