Default Diamond python eggs.......

.....unfortunately, these ones won't be making into the incubator. All sluggeroonies!

Looks like I'll be putting the males into the fridge next year to cool them down!

Unlucky Rob, Hopefully next year a few pearly whites will be heading your way. Is it her first clutch ?

Took the female and males down to around 13-14c, so it should be cool enough. I'll prolong the cooling period next year and give them a few more weeks at the lower end. I think an extra twelve months will do the males some good as well, as they are still only young.

My thoughts exactly! It would be a boring if baby diamonds just landed on your lap

Cheers mate. No joy with the Moluccans, but with luck, I'll be seeing some Bismark eggs next month. Keeping my fingers crossed!
