Posted - 15/07/2012 : 23:47:53 This post is bittersweet im a bit gutted but on the flipside happy to report that Eddie is a dad for the first time havent broadcast the news publicly because im more than a lil gutted out of twelve eggs laid by scooby my friends normal 6 went bad we lost 2 amel motleys that never made it out the eggs and 2 other normals died shortly after hatching this lil one survived as did one other but it is a teeny 3 grams its taken a feed of a pinkie head so thats a step in the right direction fingers crossed for the lil one cause im gonna keep it if it pulls through so this lil ones het hypo poss het amel motley i didnt know Eddie was het motley so that was a pleasant surprise and we've proved some hets for scooby too and i think better to have a few survive than none at all but im still a lil gutted

I found Ian's Viv before I found the forum, and sifted through for some red snakes. Ended up with Plissken...
But it's been great on here. Plenty of advise, and great for seeing everyone elses snakes! |

Posted - 16/07/2012 : 00:23:01 You were not sounding ungrateful mate, it must be gutting to loose a couple of little ones but sometimes its just not meant to be. Hopefully next year you will have lots of little ones to keep |

Well done. At least you have got 2 from the clutch some people loose all of their eggs whilst incubating. Hope the little tacker feeds up soon :)
Yup mes not trying to sound ungratefull just a bit gutted to have lost ones post hatching if they didnt make it outta the egg think it wouldnt be quite so bad nut hopefully the lil one will do ok and we have one big healthy hatchling that isnt going anywhere anyway so all is not lost cant get my head around how we got 2 amel motleys though think one musta just been het motley i loove amels and a lil amel motley woulda been awesome shall have to try again next year methinks but at least Eddies bloodline will continue so im happy about that :-)
