The het pied x het pied clutch FINALLY left their eggs. Unfortunately, there are no piebalds among them - only 66% het pieds - but they all have beautiful belly markers. The only problem I've spotted is a tiny kink on the tip of one tail. I will sex these guys after their first shed and see about getting them started on feeding.

Last night I was able to pick up my new spider ball baby. She's really cute and I'm looking forward to growing her up. Since Brianna helped me to win her in my friend Pam's raffle contest, I let her think of a name for her. She decided to name her Spyra. Not what I would have chosen, but I'm happy with it.

The above pic was Kyriel, my het pied female, on Day 43. I've candled her eggs and I just really can't say whether there are any pieds in there or not. I would like to think that at least one of the eggs I've been squinting at looked like a pied in the light, but I'm not going to hold my breath.

I meant to post before, but it slipped my mind...
At the end of August, we went on a road trip to Shelbyville, KY to pick up a new mojave female named Eve. I thought the pics of her looked really nice but now that she's home and has shed, her colors are just unreal. She's very small for her age, but I am certain that she'll gain weight without any problem. She definitely has no qualms about eating. Below is a picture of her with my male mojave, Dragon, to show the difference in their colors. E...

My friend, Pam, runs PythonPassion and put together a contest on her forum. My daughter helped me pick raffle tickets and the number she chose wound up being the winner. The prize is a 2010 spider ball female. I'll be able to pick her up as soon as she's had a couple more meals. I got to see her last night and she's cute as can be. I'm looking forward to bringing her home soon. My daughter wants to name her "Spyra".
