I think it’s mostly genetics! ![]()
My incubation process is pretty complicated, so you might want to take notes:
1- moisten vermiculite
2- place eggs in it and forget about them for 10/11 weeks

3- Spray liberally with CSGH (Corn Snake Growth Hormone).
@solarserpents I ran out of ink trying to write all this down. Pure brilliance there.
@deanaii I think 9g hatchlings and the bantam
Project maaaaaay just poooooossibly be incompatible
Best of luck, though! Let me know if you figure it out!
Maybe if it fails, we can focus our efforts on making miniature mice with tiny pinkies for our shrimpy corn babies. We have miniature horses, miniature bulldogs, and now stumpy little bantam corns, so it surely must be doable, right???
Oh, that’s a great idea. Someone needs to breed mice that make .5 - .75g newborn pinks!
Yes! Another million-dollar business idea I’ll never have time to pursue ![]()
Scaleless have such fascinating markings and patterns. Is this one a keeper?
Oh I think so! Unless the next one is even cooler.
Unless he manages to hatch out a bantam baby that is short and stout, but ROBUST as heck!
Can you imagine a short bantam corn baby that looks like a blood python and weighs 9.8g at hatching??

Golly that IS a robust little baby!
Dean is the “Robust Maker Master”!
I wish! I’d love some 10g out of eggers!
Very cool, very big babies! I had one clutch with a butch of 9-10+ g babies, and one clutch with 8-10 g. I’ve had more 5-6 g than 9-10 g. Won’t complain that the average is a very average 7-8 g. But hey, if y’all start breeding those mini mice, put me on the list!

Wow…i really love her ![]()
And the last baby is out and it’s also a scaleless anery female named Cloud! I’m not super confident in my ability to differentiate aneries from carbons when scaleless is involved, but I think these two are just anery. No idea why both the scaleless from the first clutch had regular patterns and then both of these one have a long, connected neck saddle? This one also is the only one who has a few body scales, including two on her face that look like a tiny pair of old-fashioned spectacles!
I love those spectacles! Beautiful.
