Albino clutch hatched

The first albino clutch hatched over the last couple of days. The final count was 1.2 albinos and 1.1 100% hets.  I was pleased with both the count and the sex ratio.

Only one clutch left in the incubator now, the other albino clutch which won’t be hatching until next month.

Raleigh NC Herp Show

I will be vending at the Raleigh herp show the weekend of August 30th.

This will be the first show I’ve had a table at since I quit doing them in 1999.
I figured I’d give it a  try and see how it goes. Shows are a hassle to do, but with shipping costs rising steadily I think they might start to be worth the time again.

I plan to have quite a few balls there, including spiders, pastels, and albinos, and of course the normal and het siblings. I’ll also have some jungle carpets, some kings and milks, and maybe even some roaches.
If you’re at the show stop and say hi. We won’t have a banner, but my name tag will say Clay, and I’ll probably be the only Clay there. Mention that you saw this post in the blog and I’ll give you 10% off anything you buy.

Another Albino Clutch and Spiders hatching

A second clutch of albinos was laid on July 27th. This clutch is from an albino to het albino breeding, and there were 7 eggs.

The albino clutch laid earlier is starting to collapse and I’m expecting them to hatch sometime around August 17th.

Two spider clutches have hatched. I didn’t get the greatest odds, but there were two spiders in each clutch for a total of 2.2 babies.
