She has finally let go of her eggs and most are fertile!
If all goes well with incubation, these eggs will produce the first captive bred Axanthic Moluccans ever! We are SO excited!
I'll post more details once we've collected the eggs.

Looks like a Xanthic Moluccan Python to me but I could be wrong.

As Yasser's post states, it's an Axanthic Moluccan, Morelia Clastolepis.
Xanthic and Axanthic are two totally different things.

Hey would ya look at that I guess it pays to read the whole post. And yes I realize Xanthic and Axanthic are different.
She's all done now and we stole her eggs from her.

We ended up with:
10 eggs total
9 fertile (one in poor shape), 1 infertile
Total clutch weight: 675 grams
Total fertile egg weight: 648 grams
Avg. individual egg weight: 75 grams
Blue's post-lay body weight: 1940 grams
We couldn't be happier with the fertility of this clutch! Plenty of chances!

Congrats, there is a very very good chance the one that is in "poor shape" will hatch.
