had 18 corn eggs total right at start of season... all but 2 collapsed completely.. had bad incubation at start as didnt have an incubator and only had eggs cus of a mis-sexing of a snake :P

2 pipped.. one died on the stuggle out of the egg.. and one survived.. an amazing anery

and got 14 more eggs in incubator due in about 4 weeks..

had 20 beardy eggs in my incubator from my sisters.... 4 survived.. and all pipped the other night.. and are running about like mad little things... ones a right nipple lil but love them anyway.

plus about 200 GALs eggs.. (any1 want any pm me lol) so if they hatch gonna give some to local school

peace

James

Glad i bumped back into this thread,what with things laying things hatching ect ect,
i totaly forgot about the pygmy cham eggs i have in a cricket tub just sitting in a chest of drawers(dont need the incubator for them)better go check on em shortly as there the ones i found when doing a good clean up on the vivs,(dunno when there due to hatch but they dont take long so could off already hatched),

I really like it though when you have something you can just leave in the viv and 1 day you do the usual cleaning/spraying/feeding whatever and you just see a baby wondering around,Its far better than counting the days for the ones in the incubator .

Sorry if i seem dumb as i dont have a clue about hets/morphs and the like,

i guess your on a slow boat to china ,how many years untill you get to the stage you wanna be at ?.


You just me thinking that waiting for something to hatch in the incubator isnt that bad after all,when theres people like yourself who's gotta breed this with that and so on and so forth to get where they wanna be.

goodluck in reaching your target .

I think spirit's eggs are triple hets, so she'll grow the hatchlings on till they're old enough to breed. When the hatchlings are paired together any eggs that are produced will each have a 1 in 64 chance of being triple homozygous (visual)
