Well, its late and she's still going. I guess I'll have to wait until the morning. She seems pretty tired. Only 1 more to go though. Damn those eggs are big for a colubrid!

Here's hopin' for 3 or 4 hypos!!!

Thanks guys!

Marisa, its either 10 or 11. Either way is fine by me.

Hey I noticed your post on corns changing color. I never noticed any of my female corns changing colors, but that was a while ago, and you could probably fill encyclopedias with stuff that I overlooked and missed back in the day!! LOL!!

But I do know that a lot of boids lose color after their first clutch. Jungles, Rainbows (especially), Ball morphs, etc etc. Not sure of the reason. Sorry I couldn't be of help. :-(

That's o.k. although I did enjoy my dark peachy colored corn...I suppose I can live with a bleached out one! *L*

Good luck with your babies!

Marisa :D

She's still nice so I wouldn't fret!! But watch other females and see if they do the same thing. You may be on to something.

I can't wait until next year when I get to try these guys!! I should have bought some 5 years ago. I missed the boat on that one! :mad:

Wow another great snake! Although I must say I like the snake in the first photos above better. I love the reds and blacks together.

You have insane snakes Mr. Favelle! :D

Great pics Jeff, those eggs look odd to me, being sausage shaped.

Congrats on the honduran eggs and looking forward to seeing what you have bred next year with the assortment of color phases you have. Best of luck for lots of pretty babies.
