2012 Hatch Record

There are currently no clutches in the Hatch Record for 2013 yet so here are our 2012 Clutches.

A personal look into my incubator. The hatchling page shows recent clutches with their relative data and info. Make sure to check back often to get a first glimse at what's hatching out here at Pythons Direct!

  • Sire(s): Orange Dream Pinstripe
  • Date Laid: March 7th, 2012

This clutch was very exciting. I believe this captive hatched female may either be a new line of Orange Dream or a very similar new codom. The babies from this clutch are insane!

1.0 Orange Dream Pinstripe? 0.1 Orange Dream?, 1.0 New gene?, 3.2 Normals (1.0 Orange Dream Pinstripe didn't make it out... she was incredible)... I am definitely going to repeat this pairing next season.

Another great clutch of butter bees. Statistically 1 in 4 should be butter bees so hopefully we'll have one or two more out of this clutch.

Since so many codom males bred this female we aren't 100% sure which one(s) sired this clutch. Maybe we'll get a split sired clutch? That would be pretty neatl We'll just have to wait 55 days and see!
