Blue Beauty Eggs *pics*

Stav may recognize this li'l female. I bought this gal from him last year. Her and her brother. Well today she laid! Well actually, she started yesterday. Before Vanan and I settled to a movie I check in on her. She was 15 days post shed, and I was a bit concerned. I put two different sized lay containers for her, and just the day before covered up her cage so she wouldn't be bothered by movement in the living room. So anyways, before the movie, she had three eggs, and then after the movie four.

Note how thin and long the eggs are!!

So in the morning we checked on her, and found eight beautiful eggs! Look at what a momma she is!!

I'm sooo happy!!!!

In the lay container, is peat moss and toilet paper. Leader doesn't have moss, so I had to go with what I had! <laugh>

Hey Mark. Yeah, a female with more eggs has rounder eggs. There's some pics of female blues with eggs in the forum that can not be named. The younger females with a smaller number of eggs have long thin eggs. There's a pic of a momma with 21 and they are small and round.

Those eggs look like spalarosophis diadema eggs (going by pictures, never seen them in real life). I wonder if they'll stay that shape? I'm sure the babies are more comfy in them.

I'll ask Byron about his 2 clutches, I think he mentioned his being elongated also (also first clutch females).

Here's what things looked like here this year just so everyone can see that you can't tell what it is just by looking at the eggs. Mark

Beautiful snake.

What is the average cost of a blue beauty, and what are their temperments like?
