First clutch of the year

[Cal State Reptiles]

Here is our first batch of eggs for this year. Our big female spider paired with our Pastel Coral Glow to give us a huge pile of 10 eggs. Crossing our fingers for at least one Pastel Spider Coral Glow.

How are you going to get a Pastel Spider Coral Glow out of a Spider female and Coral Glow male? Nice clutch though.

I kno the importance of keeping the eggs in the same position (air buble) when moving from mom to the incubator.......could you share an tips for this??? As it looks like you just picked uup the whole clutch frm the pics. I am not a breeder but have often woundered this when you have a egg on top of others such as this clutch.

thx .....i cant wait to see the hatchlings

Jeremy,
Yes, after the mom was carefully uncoiled from her clutch, we picked the whole pile of eggs up as one. They are stuck together pretty good, so it is not that hard. Two people using both hands each to support all the eggs works just fine.

We are anxiously awaiting these babies as well. We update our Facebook page pretty regularly, so check back often for the latest photos.
Thanks

So these babies started to come out of their eggs today. Unfortunately one of the 10 eggs ended up being infertile, but overall we are very happy with this clutch.





I think what we have here are a Bumble Bee, a Coral Glow, a Spider Coral Glow, and two Pastel Spider Coral Glows.




and still to come out of their eggs are a Pastel, a Spider, a Bumble Bee, and a Pastel Spider Coral Glow.

Thank you. We would have been thrilled with a female, but we are pretty happy with this clutch as is.
