[Dom]

YEAHHHHH wooo hooo lol

Today is a big day ..

I'd like to first of all thank the snake gods wich have been really good to me this year .. then I'd like to thank a few others like Chris Marshell .. Chris (reptile hq) .. Trace ... Kelvin .. for all there help .. MY BABIES ARE HATCHING, AND ITS ALL THANKS TO YOU guys!

After day 51 .. the first 2 heads started comming out.. can't wait to see how many there will be tomorw when I get back from work!

After this whole ordeal .. here is the best lesson I learned ..

STOP FUC***G WITH THE EGGS ... LEAVE EM ALONE .. lol I stopped lossing eggs when I stopped opening the container .. those are trullly words of a wiseman lol TRUST ME!

Heres my first baby pic ever .. the other got scared and retreated inside his egg.. :):):)

I can't even begin to tell u guys how Happy I am! I can't beleive they started hatching out so early .. I was expecting a good 55 to 56 days for them ..

I possibly have between 19-20 that will hatch out.. I will possibly only have about 5 for sale in a few weeks .. all others are accounted for :)

Can't wait to see the rest..

[Trace]

It's going to kill me NOT to look in that incubator tomorrow while you are at work!

Congrats again Dom!!! This is the absolute coolest thing to happen here! :D

WWWWWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Greg West]

A better way to check your eggs is to use a piece of glass for a lid so that you can see in without disturbing the eggs.

congrats Dom.

[Mike177]

congrats, they look great. what kind of carpets are they?

[Trace]

OK, so I snuck down and peeked in the incubator this morning, and snagged a few pics... Sorry about the bad quality of them, but Dom really has to put his incubator on a lower table so us vertically challenged folk can see in there properly! :p

[marylyn101]

i'm proud for you. baby's are always so cute!

[Dom]

ZOE: I know what u mean althoguh i am really lucky to have had them hatch out early .. quite happy about it..

If u can, I have been talking to Mardy about this, and we were curious to see if there was correlation between the order of the snakes that come out of the eggs adn how well they do.

.. basically .. the first one to come out.. to the last one. I have talked to ppl and they seem to say that often the first one out is the best feeder and the last one is often the trouble feeder.. so I have been up for the past 2 nights.. taking out the babies one by one to keep the order.. I am a bit curious to see if it will correlate..

Your eggs will hatch soon .. be patient.. it is SO WORTH IT IN THE END!

:):):)

[Tim and Julie B]

those are seriously cool pics! That right there is what makes everything worth it. It has got to be one of the best feelings in the world. Proud, satisfaction and happiness all at once! Congrads on your new additions.:D

[Mardy]

Thats a good boy Dom keep them in order.
and if anybody else has imput or will try this little project of mine great!

Mardy

[Dom]

lol I got the full order lol from first out fo the egg to last.. Well see who is the best feeder or if your theory is bs lol

Well 20 babies out now.. there the sweetest thing..

[dlucka]

I'm more then happy for you!!!! Good luck with all those babies.
