    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....

The second year curse?

This years been a slow one. Still a lot of uncertainty on wether some of my girls are even going to go this year. This girl dropped today. A poss het albino female in the mid 2000g range. How did i do? lol, 5 slugs, 2 infertile eggs, and only 3 viable. Maybe all that good luck i had last year washed off and now i'm getting a taste of how the other side looks. I'm going to try and keep hope that these last 3 females come through in some small way. If not, this year is pretty much a bust.

Oh man, that's no good.
Hopefully the 3 egg's do well and your other girls are just taking their sweet time and drop some more eggs.
 
my first season, i had a total of like 21 babies from 3 snakes.

next season, was slug-fest. 7 babies from 3 females. more eggs were given, but alot were slugs, baby died after pipping, or egg went bad....

i am hoping fo rbetter odds this season from 3 girls!

best wishes to yours as well.
 
Sorry to hear about all the slugs and infertile eggs from what would have been a big clutch! Hopefully the odds gods smiled on you more than you realize and they are all albinos. Good luck with them, and the rest of your girls!!
 
yeah I've only had one clutch as well, so I'm thinking the girls are just waiting till the end of april or early may to start dropping. I'm expecting around 10 clutches so I know I have to have at least a couple more females that will drop. Good luck the rest of the year!!!
 
I know how you feel, this year hasn't been great so far for me either. I don't even have eggs on the ground yet and only one girl ovulated for me so far. You may still have a few bright spots though, hang in there.
 
I actually had a crappy year last year myself with several slug fests etcetera so believe me I know how it feels. Keep the faith though- 3 more girls to go for you and maybe they'll each have 10 eggs each! Yeah!!!
