 Posted: Mon Apr 14, 2008 8:24 pm Post subject: Update on hatchling GTP's |
 |
|
Here is a quick update on the hatch-lings, sorry it has been a few days (you people are quite impatient - you know who you are!!!  )
Well out of the 10 eggs that looked good i have had 8 hatch-lings. 7 of them are perfect and 1 has a birth defect that has resulted in a kinked spine and a twisted neck. Not sure if this little fellow will make it so i guess only time will tell.
Here are some pics of the healthy ones.
Here is the birth defect one.
The two eggs that didn't hatch contained a still born and a partially developed snake.
As i have said in my other post all of these offspring are spoken for so unless i re-advertise and please don't ask me how much they are or if i have any available.
Cheers

Really dont know mate. All the eggs were incubated in exactly the same way and all together. Guess thats just nature for you, some make it, some dont.
Mayce somone who has had similar experiances can shed (no punn intended ) some light on the subject
