Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

∩ 04 Female Het T- does 10 this morning!
I honestly thought I was going to wake up to her egg bound and dead. Some of the absolute wildest pre-lay positions I have ever seen..
She did 10 during the night. All are perfect! She huddled the litter like a professional an hour after this photo, as she settles in to do this Maternally.
8 years to prove this pair out between two collections, in case anybody is wondering the dedication that goes into breedings! I'm hoping for some T- heads pippin' in 54 days.

Eggsactly! Easy street now... The breeding is a pair of 100% Het T-'s that are stricltly mice and asf feeders ONLY! Never taken an offered Norway in 1.5 yrs I've been involved with them. Took 5 yrs to raise to weight, lol, and here we are..
Last year she got her eggs on the ground, and then the hard part happened.. She had 8 that were lost in a friends incubator failure while on a Vacation.
The eggs didn't make it far enough to be able to tell if there were any morphs or not, towel was thrown in on the pair, and I took over. Real curious to see how she fares brooding her own..
Thanks Blue Magik!

How exciting! Thats so cool you do the maternal incubation. Ive heard so many horror stories about it Im not sure I will ever delve into that, especially since Ive heard females tend to not eat while incubating their eggs.

Thank you! Don't believe everything that is written or told... The only horror stories I know are Incubator involved anymore.
Let me put a couple myths to sleep right here, right now since I have a chance. This is the way it was intended by MN(Mother Nature). They will shed and eat while on a "stack"... My females are sweet as pie and allow me to intervene with barely a huff and a puff here and there.. My females always come back to their stack and keep it wrapped up.. And... They can go back to back like my other female Het T+ sitting on 8 right now and in a post lay shed. She was in the same position last year this time.
Honestly, I don't even own an Incubator! Lol. And I love admitting that noise! We have 20 females that are going to roll out their own babies.. Including a Desert... I'll post some pics of these two later on... Progression pics.

EXACTLY. That is why I am going with maternal incubation this year. Massive losses last year due to the incubator.
Congrats on the clutch. Let's hope the results more than make up for the time it took to get there.

WELP! She Proves! But, it's a bum deal kinda 'Proving'..... Maternally Incubating, I have been catching them pipping on the morning of the 50th day. This coming Monday was/is morning 50....
I checked everybody earlier today and started to smell that.. Ummm, rotten egg smell.. I was not happy. In the end I found the bottom and center most egg went bad here at the tail end..
I gently rip apart the egg cluster, get to the 'bad' egg, and, as luck would have it.. You gotta know where I am going with this.. Of course, I walk past the scissors to the garbage can, and then think, I better check, so I do..
And, whatta ya know.. Tom, shot in the foot one more time. She proves, to a lifeless fully formed, but "not quite right" dead Visual T-. I have 9 more chances starting Monday morning, my fingers are white-knuckled and crossed. I'll spare you the horrible pic I just had to take of the scenario..
