After all that waiting, you slide open her compartment...

...and you discover a new clutch of big beautiful ball python eggs!!!! There is nothing better! Well actually there is...ina about 56 days!!!

We will document this season and provide you with some of the highlights. These are not all of our clutches by any means. How many will we produce this year? Hmmm...who knows? I keep asking my snakes and they don't seem to want to give me an answer!

You lookin' at me?

This is a great shot if I may say so myself! Man do these girls get protective! I hate to bother them, but I love taking pics and they usually just keep laying. This is a het albino bred to an albino.

 
 

OK...exactly how did all of those eggs fit in that tiny female???

It's amazing how all those eggs can fit in such a small female. Hey...I'm not complaining!

I love the detail on her head. Very intense!

 
 

This never gets boring!

Just like the heading says!!!

 
 

How many do you see?

This is this females second clutch. 12 eggs!!! Two of the eggs are suspect. I can see any veins, but they are on the bottom and I can't really tell. Fingers crossed!

 
 

Look at the size of these eggs!

A nice first clutch of 6 good eggs!

 
 

It's about time!

This female is 6 years old and this is only her first clutch. I took her in for a friend when she was 3 years old and only 584 grams! She eventually grew and laid 4 good eggs. They were huge! 4 inches long!

 
 

One more !

Interesting story here! The last time this female laid eggs for me was in 2002 on May 1st. The next time she laid was in 2005...on May 1st! Do do do do.....
