Excited about this clutch...

Very cool Julian, is that one of Corey's stock? Way lighter than any of my lesser ghosts.
Stephan; 54-56 days at 89.5-90. Shorter for higher temps, longer for lower temps.

I don't mean to take this thread off-topic, but are there advantages to higher/lower temps, or does it not really matter?

After a certain temperature they cook.

DON'T try reptile egg omelettes, I've tried both snake and lizard omelettes and i can tell you right now its the worst thing I've ever eaten!

Absolutely stunning! I can't wait to see the offspring...good luck with the wait

[citysnakes]

thanks again guys!

Mykee, she is one of Corey's stock. i picked her up in the summer and am very happy that she went all the way this year. she was hatched in 2008. where are your lesser ghosts from?

ball python eggs can be successfully incubated anywhere from 86-90 degrees and i have heard of success at temps outside of this range. as Mykee said, incubating at the cooler end of the range means a longer wait than incubating at the warmer end. ball python eggs can hatch at 53-60 days depending on temps. i prefer to incubate cooler (87.5F) and wait longer because i feel that this reduces the occurrence and risk of deformities and death but success is seen at many incubation temps.

Oh wow shes absolutely gorgeous! Congrats on the all the healthy eggs! You will be posting baby pictures right? I'm pretty much going to have to demand baby pictures here. XD;

[mykee]

I incubate everything at 89.4.


Julian, all of my ghost stock; LOG, POG, all my lesser het OG's, SPOG, plain old OG's are all from Corey's lstock as well.
In my opinion, you find a great breeder, you stick with him, that and we've been friends for 11 years and I'm at his place all the time...
I've probably spent over $75K with Corey.

Just curious where you unload your normal mykee? I was thinking of pet stores but most of them have terrible husbandry and the animals get infested with mites within weeks.

[mykee]

I wholesale my normals to wholesalers or give them away free with the purchase of a morph. I don't produce many normals anymore though, maybe 4-5 this season.

You're going to get double that estimate this year just because you said it Mykee!

[mykee]

Shhhh, maybe They didn't hear...
