Another shot of candy and her clutch. More to come later ;)

Candy laid eggs last night! A beautiful clutch of 28 eggs, all look good :D
There will be a *huge* variety when this hatches. Candy is het amel, anery, caramel, and motley. Her mate Gilgamesh is a butter (amel and caramel) het anery motley.

They're all in pretty good shape but there are two things going on:
1. eggs are a bit dehydrated. I gave her some damp moss and got to them pretty quickly but apparently she shoved all the moss to the side before laying so the eggs probably didn't have as much humidity as they need. This is just a tiny bit dry though they should recover 100%
2. for some reason Candy's eggs tend to have "windows" on them, especially on the tops. Windows are kind of a weak/transparent part of the shell. As far as I've seen, these windows may bulge out a little as the eggs grow (they seem to be weaker than the rest of the egg) and once one even leaked late in the incubation (but resealed itself when I stuck a bit of paper towel on it) but so far all the babies seem to hatch out fine.
So... they're a little funny looking but should be okay!

Awesome!! I'm super excited myself. My ball python should be laying soon, and I caught my amber and anery locked up last night. :D...so hopefully it all goes through! Their babies will be half normal motleys het anery, hypo, caramel, and normals het motley, anery, hypo caramel. I'm excited, to say the least. xD
