    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....

Woo-HOO!! Clutch #2

Congrats Matt, I hope you slay the odds and end up with a few BEL's!!! good Luck and keep us updated!!
 
Congrats Matt (srry for the late one)

I def think you'll get at least two Bels, ill keep my fingers crossed for more!
 
Well, I lost an egg a couple of weeks ago. I believe it went bad around day 40. I cut it and found a colorless, patternless snake, but don't know if it was a BEL or if it just had not started developing color and pattern yet. When I found it, it had been bad for at least a few days. The smell kept me from fooling with it for more than a few seconds.

But fast forward to present day, where things are looking a little brighter. Today is #57, and I have little pippers...inlcuding 1 BEL. I hope to have better pics soon!!

Thank you, Sir!!! I'm so happy that I produced my first BEL, and it's 100% het ghost to boot...but I already traded it so I REALLY wanted 2!!! :bawling:

Nice clutch Matt and why did you trade a BEL out before knowing what you were going to hatch now... Oh well I hope you got something you needed more!!
 
Congratulations Matt,
I was really pulling for you to hit em all but now you have something to look forward to for next season yet. Delayed gratification is a dish best savored sssslllllllloooooooowwwwwllllllyyyyy!
 
Congrats Matt!!!

Thanks, Kelly!!

Thanks, Rev! I was hoping, but never expected to hit half, much less 100%, BEL's!! lol And enjoying it ssslllloooooooowwwllllyyyy means I need patience!! :rofl: Yeah, about that...:rolleyes:

Thanks, Steve! Well, it started out as IF I get TWO BEL's then I'll offer the 2nd as trade. This is all part of an ongoing, big trade. This guy that I'm working with has turned out to be one of the nicest guys that I've worked with, and we've become friends. Somewhere along the way--lol, probably after a couple of beers--I said, "You know what? If I only get a single BEL, it's yours." I can't go back on my word so...:eek: LOL--I'm not really upset that I'm letting it go, considering what I got in return. Just wish I'd gotten 2!! Guess I'll have to make more next year! :thumbsup:

And these are just 2 of the reasons that I'm not having a problem letting it go. First is a 2007 Gibson SG Select Top in mint condition. The second is an all original, 1974 Gibson Les Paul 20th Anniversary. It's in awesome condition for a 37 year old, vintage guitar.

Those are some nice guitars it makes me wanna have one even though I don't know how to play. :rofl:
 
Ooooo nice!!!

See, there's another reason...cause gurls...like..gee-TARS!! Yeah, allll-riighhtt!! (Gotta read that with Matthew McConaughey's voice from the movie, Dazed and Confused!! :rofl:)

Those are some nice guitars it makes me wanna have one even though I don't know how to play. :rofl:

They sound sweet, but they're spending more time on the wall as eye-candy while I play others that I'm less worried about putting wear-n-tear on. Definitely not my everyday players.
 
Lmao. I love that movie!!!! Its my favorite.

"That's why I date high school girls. I keep gettin' older, but they stay the saaame age." :rofl: My wife got me hooked on that movie, shortly after we started dating!

I tried to get a couple of shots, but the BEL seems to keep retreating, every time I get a decent shot lined up! The rest of them are just looking up like, "what about me??" lol

I really can't believe how purple this super is! I guess that's pretty normal for a pre-shed super mojo?? This is my first time seeing a BEL hatch, in person, so I'm only guessing.

I've never tried hatching bels so couldn't help ya there but I would think with the super mojo the light purple would be the norm!

Yea that movie makes me wish I grew up in that era. Lol.

It looks like it was just still in the later stages of development. This morning it was much more pink than purple, and when I JUST checked on it, it was already getting much more white.

OMG..




One thing I like about Les Pauls, they keep getting older, but they play just the same,

yes they do, yes they do.

Yes they do, yes they do...I knew I was leaving something out of my quote! lol But regarding Les Pauls (at least Gibsons), that is very true!! :D

Congrats Matt! Can't wait to see that out of the egg

Thanks Gary!! They are all starting to venture out...'til they see me opening the tub...AGAIN! If I could stay out of the incubator for a couple of hours, I might have some good pics to share.

WOOHOO congrats matt!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! mojo to mojo or ?

Thanks Deobra!! Hypo Mojo x Mojo! I hate to say anything yet, but one of these mojos is looking suWEET!! I hope that's a girl because I'd like to holdback 1 female mojo het ghost. Only problem with that is, I've got FIVE people that want a male mojo het ghost so...
