2010 Ball Python Incubator
Well It's finally started the first eggs of 2010 are in the incubator.
Clutch #1
Laid on 4-20-2010
6 good eggs and 5 slugs
This was a breeding of our female normal (FN1) X male Bumblebee (MBB1).
Was Not what we had hoped for but at least we have our first eggs.
The only odd thing about this clutch was how long it took her to lay the eggs after her pre-lay shed, over 50
days. So we will have to see what effect this has on the eggs.










Estimated hatch date of 6-15-2010.
Update on 4-28-2010
Unfortunately 4 of the eggs have now gone bad (turning green) Would guess it has to do with how long she
took to lay them. So we will have to wait and see if the last 2 hold up.
Update only one egg left as of 6-5-2010.
Final update 6-19-2010 last egg hatched but baby was deformed and died halfway out of egg.
Clutch #2
Laid on 4-28-2010
8 eggs all appear to be good.
This is a breeding of one of our normal females to the bumblebee boy again.
Better #'s on this clutch hopefully they will hold up. The Female laid these about 39 day's after her pre-lay shed.










Estimated hatch date of around 6-22-2010
They have hatched!!
Clutch #3
Laid on 5-2-2010
8 eggs all appear to be good except for slight green color. ( have not seen this before )
This is a normal female (#38) bred to a Fire male(Jeneane's).
This is a very unusual looking normal. She is very light similar to a fire and also has very high white sides. So
the babies from this clutch could be interesting but we will have to wait and see. Either way there should at
least be a few fires.
Fire male
Clutch #4
Laid 5-4-2010        
9 good eggs and 1 slug
This clutch was a breeding of a black pastel het. Ghost male to a shatter pattern female (unproven).
The shatter pattern is a interesting effect on the balls color and a super form has not yet been
produced.
More information can be found on them at www.NextWorldExotics.com under the hunters guide. It
gives a detailed  description of what to look for. I have also included some pictures of the shattering
on her. So now we just have to wait and see what hatches.

Shatter pattern (unproven)
Clutch #5
Laid on 5-13-2010
7 eggs all appear to be good
This was a breeding of a Mojave male to a normal (unusual).
Her look is very hard to describe, but it's kind of like a checkerboard hypo look(like that means
anything). I'll try to get a better close shot of her later.
