    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....

Way too cool.

Yep, Lolo, Boob's nipple is right there on the edge of his/her egg! LOL! You know I'll post tons of pics of everyone once they're out...including your Boob! :D Oh, wait...your snake, Boob! :dgrin:
 
For those of you wondering what the we're talking about, I called Tere yesterday and asked if I could but the boob egg snake. I promised to name it Boob" no matter what sex it is.
She was so cute when she said "you know it's just a normal right" and I think she about fell out of her chair when I told her about my 3 year albino Sophie and my 6 year old lemon pastel Tater that are both virgins.

I wanted the Boob for my own little pet, it had never mattered to me about breeding them. I like what I like.

Thanks for the kind words, friends. I've been checking baby about every hour or so and haven't seen any movement or breathing whatsoever since about 7:00 last night. I'm pretty sure he's no longer with us...and that's just about all I can say.

On a much lighter note, I opened the incubator this morning to this. So...we cut why again? Sweet baby looks like a turtle or something and it just looks so goofy.

And I don't know if anyone has any input on this, but that super huge egg (top in the shot of turtle/snake, bottom left in group shot), notice the different head positions. Those pictures were taken at MOST a minute apart from each other. I looked at that egg after I noticed that and still only see one head on top like it is in the group shot. Anyone? That baby just needs to come out.
Click to expand...

wow that babies head moved quite quickly LOL sorry to hear about the one baby :( but hopefully you will have 2 babies in the weird fat egg to make up for it :) I am on day 61 and still nobody wants to come out :"( they must know Im impatient LOL Good luck tere :D
 
Tere, I`m so sorry about the Lil One who didn`t make it. This hobby is full of Ups & Downs. We can only pray that the Ups out number the downs. And now I must join everyone else and "OOOOOH & AHHHH" over the head on that Spider in the big egg...OMG! Absolutely stunning! I can`t wait to see the rest of him/her.
 
Thanks, Deobra. It would be nice if there were two in that super huge egg, but at this point, I'd be very happy with one very fat one...just so long as it comes out alive and healthy.

You and me, both Rayna. That one's made me crazy from the day it was laid, wondering and wondering. I'm starting to think it took that huge egg to hold that huge beautiful head? LOL! I don't know. I just want the rest of them to be okay.

I can see everyone's heads now, including Boob. Awesome head spider can't decide if he wants to be in or out...keeps going back and forth. Turtle/snake just went all the way back in then came out the sliding glass door...and Kelly, your little one (I think...it was a really quick peek) is about 1/2 way out. The others, their little heads are just barely poking out. I can't WAIT to see them all out!
 
Kelly, yours is definitely the farthest out so far...with awesome spider head coming in a close second. Hoping to have pics by the time you're home from work of your little one all the way out (and hoping it IS your little one that's coming out!)
 
Houston, we have a problem. We no longer have Turtle/Snake. We do, however, have this darling little normal that just hatched.

First two pictures are how they were before supper. Second pic, well, just now. This is egg #2. Sorry, Kelly! Yours has gone back into hiding.

And it would appear awesome spider head is a single...but a VERY large one. From what I can tell, its midsection is comparable to one of the smaller axanthic babies we hatched out around the end of March. This thing is a monster!

Lolo, Boob has now turned over so his back is showing. He's going to be such a pretty baby!

Very pretty normal. No biggy that mine wasn't the first! I don't mind. That spider is a chunker, lol. Gosh its so pretty!!
 
Turtle Baby is very pretty! But look how dark that Normal in the background is..Now I am anxious to see him outta the egg :) I just LOVE the face on that Spider- GORGEOUS! Bet that`s an 80 gram hatchling :)
 
I agree, Rayna. The first one is very dark, but Kelly's is way darker. I'm not quite sure how that happened, either. Their mama is a little dark but nowhere near as dark as they are. I'll post some pics of her...all I have of her now are some very old ones that make her look a LOT darker than she really is.

From the looks of things, that giant baby and the other spider on the same row should be out this morning. These guys are our first "early" (before 60 days) clutch!
 
Seconc out, but 1st Spider

Now let me introduce you all to Gigantor the spider, she is the baby we thought was a twin and yes I said she (as of right now). I will do the double take after she sheds.

Second spider to leave it's nice cramped home and enter our wonderful world. And it seems to be a little girl. Help me the testosterone level is dropping in the house. Wait most men would love to be surrounded by this many females.
