    Late Easter eggs

    Hi there

    This year, I won't have any Thamnophis offspring. But there's something else that left me some eggs







    I hope that the homemade drying chamber works well. It's the first time that I have some snake eggs.

    Greez from Switzerland,

    Looks like you have things pretty well set up for incubating those eggs Cyrill. As long as you don't let them dry out they'll be fine. Good luck!

    Re: Late Easter eggs

    Thanks James. I started to set up the box 2 weeks before and tested / changed her quite a lot. This is how it looks like now (maybe someone is interested in):

    The relative humidity is arount 90% (+/- 1%).

    The temperature is between 27 and 28 ° C (80 - 82 ° F).

    nice, how long do you incubate them for before they hatch?

    Cyrill,

    I'm very happy for you. The mother is very pretty, so I hope the babies come out just as nice. Thanks for sharing these great pictures.

    P.S. The incubator looks great.

    Congrats on the eggs Cyrill. I haven't even started breeding my Lampropeltis mex. thayeri yet....had them down a bit long due to some caging problems. Best of luck to you for them.

    Re: Late Easter eggs

    Thank you all :-)

    @FitnessFreak
    They need about 2 months, till they hatch.

    @abcat1993
    You're right. It's a Lampropeltis mexicana greeri (as sure as I can be).

    @GarterGuy
    Good luck with yours. Would be interested in pictures of your thayeris.
