Can't Keep A Secret
I'm sure most of you know the story of this clutch now, but just in case, here are the details again. ;)

The parents of this clutch are Amel het. Cinder/Hypo/Lavender X same. I got them from Carol at Low Belly Reptiles as a breeding loan for this season. The girl laid a clutch of 16 eggs in April, and despite some incubator issues the pippies started hatching mid-July. :D

Out of the 16 eggs, 12 hatched out. Of the 12 babies, 2 died before their first shed. I am in the process of offering the rest their first meals, so I'll try to update everybody on that in the next couple days.

And I think that covers it. Please be patient as I post the photos. It will require more than one post for all of them!

*THE END*


Thanks for looking! :) Despite the losses, I'm still very excited about raising my first clutch of corn babies!
 
Awesome variety of good-looking babies you have there!! The white one sure was interesting... too bad he wasn't ready for life. :(
