    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....

Long Awaited 1st Clutch of the Season!!

Congrats Matt!!

Thanks Kelly!!

Congrats bud! I know if feels good to have that first clutch on the ground? :thumbsup:

Thanks Joe!! Man, you AIN'T kiddin'!!!

I'm right there with you Matt, only one clutch in the inc so far with 6 or 7 more coming eventually.
Congrats, it's a start! lol

Thanks Jerry!! Good luck with yours. I just had another girl ovulate today so I'm expecting about 7 more between any day now thru mid-July.

Congrats!!! Woo!

I understand what you're feeling. Last year, my clutch hatched at the beginning of June, and this year, it looks like I won't even get eggs until after that. It's like, Will I ever get eggs this year?!?! :D

Thanks Krystal!! Yeah, I had at least 3 clutches HATCHED by this time last year, with another 5 or 6 incubating. This is going to be a light year anyway. Next year should be back up around 2 dozen clutches...but I'm not worrying about NEXT season until I at least hatch a couple THIS season!! :rofl:
 
I thought for sure that at least one of these little boogers would be OUT when I checked on them this morning. They're obviously comfortable!! :toetap05:

Nope...mojos! :D Weren't supposed to be, but what can I say...he's a true STUD!! Unfortunately, my odds aren't great. Looks to be 2 mojos and 3 normals. When I first cut them, I thought I saw a pastave, but no such luck. Now I'm just hoping for females.
 
Sweet! So there's no chance that any of these babies will be the "morph that will remain unspoken in your presence", right? :rofl:
 
congrats, matt. I think we have the horniest male mojaves in captivity. that's 10 mojaves for me this year so far, with more to come I'm sure. I'm just hoping the mojave isn't the sire of the bee clutch I've got coming next month. as cool as a pastave bee would be, I'm crossing fingers for the lemon blast to sire and hitting a killer blast or two.
 
The baby on the bottom, right...yummy! Can't wait to see them all out!

I'm ready to see that one, too!! ;)

Thanks Bradley! I swear, I'm starting to worry that this guy may have gotten some girls gravid from just LOOKING at them, from across the room!! I'm not even gonna let my wife in the room with him!! :rofl:

Congrats Matt, you can't go wrong with Mojos!!

Then I should be a'ight!!! :D lol Thanks, Dustin!

Well, I FINALLY found one of these babies out of it's shell. Cute little normal female. :)

Isn't the waiting torture? You wait 54 days to see them and then they still don't want to come out and you have to wait some more. If only they wanted to see us as bad as we want to see them, lol!

I honestly am going to try not to cut my next couple of clutches. Not promising, but all I seem to do is frustrate the :censored: out of myself. We'll see if I still feel like that, next week when I have clutches #3 & 4 due to cut!! :D

Here's the 2nd baby. This normal is the one that I was really wanting to see out of the egg because I could see mostly it's tail after I cut the egg. It has a really pretty, reduced pattern (IMO). Of course it popped male. :( Oh well. Still hoping that both mojos are girls!!

Thanks Tere and Nick! If that one were a girl, I might keep it. Got home from dinner, fed my snakes and checked on these guys that I had left alone for several hours...THAT was no easy task, let me tell ya!! lol But I guess they're still hungry and getting the last few drops from their yolks. Hope to have better shots of some (hopefully) gorgeous mojos tomorrow. ;)
