    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

egg issue, or not. you decide.

I had a friend watching a couple clutches for me while I was away. Well he made a mistake and slit the wrong clutch, so the clutch was slit 10 days early. The snakes appear to be fine and i'm quite happy with the results. 1 cinnabee, 1 possible cinnabee or spider, and two who could be lemonblasts or pinstripes. The final egg is just a visable belly so no clue there. This clutch will be 50% poss het for pied. My issue is the inside of the eggs posibly drying out. I've heard of people adding water to the insides of the eggs if they dry out before the babies attempt to leave the eggs. Anyone ever done this? Distilled water? Any info would be great. What's done is done and can't be undone. I want this clutch to come through. They will make some nice holdbacks for future projects. Thanks.
 
With a few drops of distilled water (it won't have the pollutants found in tap water) you should be fine. Good luck with them!!
 
How are these guys doing?

As long as the humidity in the egg tub is up there, you shouldn't have to add anything unless the fluid around the babies starts getting sticky and goopy.

A white hazy-looking stuff might start to form on the surface of the fluid from its contact with the air, but it shouldn't hurt your babies.

Good luck!
 
Doing good thus far. My first assumptions were way off base. 4 have a pin pattern. Not sure who are lemonblasts and who are pins at this point. All are moving and appear to be well.
