    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....

I had some last year like that. The hatchlings were much bigger than the smaller eggs that hatched. I'm sure there are people with more exp than me with a better answer though. But my assumption would be bigger babies coming.
 
Ya we had a couple like that last yr & some this yr. The babies just vary in size, jus like any animals. Its mother nature, she does what she wants, haha. Good luck with them.
 
To be honest, I don't remember if the top eggs seemed like smaller than normal BP eggs (though the top ones are definitely BP eggs)
 
We have varying size eggs in our clutches sometimes. Babies come out smaller from the smaller eggs. If the babies are too small they might be harder to get started eating. No worries!
 
Definitely smaller, the ones we had last yr hatched at 20 & 21 grams! Little bit of a challenge to get eating but they have taken off & are great feeders now. More work but rewarding.
 
I'm not worried at all, lol. (I HAVE been doing this for over 20 yrs, after all)
I am somewhat disappointed that everybody seems to think I posted this because the top eggs are smaller.

Oh well - moving on. Have a great weekend, everybody.
 
Well what the heck lol. Im not seeing the difference except they are smaller. Call me the goofus! 20 years is a long time. Impressive. We been doing it only 3. Got us beat!
 
I assume the bottom eggs are from a different python species?
do I get a cookie?
:D
(he gave that away in #5 though so I assume I'll be cookie-less)
