Yee haw!!!! Day 55 and my first mex blk (first baby of the season) has pipped!!! I didn't expect them to have pipped at all, but I checked the incubator anyhow and one lone head was sticking right out. None of the other eggs have pipped, but I'm sure they will.

Without further ado, here is the li'l baby!!

I just love mex blks! They're my favourite kings. So beautiful and gentle, with those lovely black eyes.

The only one that has pipped has come out of its egg! Soooo adorable. The tiniest bit of pattern on it. He dried out so fast, he looks all wrinkly. Got him in a delicup in the incubator so he's warm and toasty (I don't actually know if its a male.) So much snake comes out of a li'l egg!!

I hope to have seven babies pip in total. They are all looking good, but none of the others have slits. I hope by morning they do. I am going mad. I wish I had an exacto knife to slit them myself!

Hey, she couldn't have gone to a better home!! I don't mind when any of my snakes go to you or Vanan - at least I know they are being very well looked after.

So far, there are six heads, and two more left to go. I though I had seven eggs, but obviously university education does not teach you how to count, so in actuality I have eight!!!

Three are fully out and I hope to photograph them when Vanan is finished with the camera.

They are quite dark with the faintest bit of white pattern on the back and some speckles on the belly. They look fully blue and I hear that a lot of the pattern is shed off after the first shed. Both mom and dad are very black so I suppose that the babies will grow to be as black as them.

I hope to keep a pair. Mr. Cranwill will be getting a female, and I hope to send one to BC for a friend. I hope I can find them all nice homes with people who like mex blks as I do.
