Thats good to hear Jason. I hope they all hatch for you. My Boodarie didnt lay this season which is a bit of a shame, but at least it'll give her a rest.

Cant wait to see the hatchies. The male I got from you is looking very nice.

Cheers,
Chris

shame yours didnt go. as you said though the rest should do her well! not sure if ill pair her next season for that reason, however i dont think last seasons dolbacks will be ready for next year... time will tell

is the male you got from me still showing lots of yellow? when i compare my 'yellow' boy with the girl i got from you, he looks very yellow! i really hope i hach a few more like that this season from the pair so i can refine that color with red bands. im remaining hopeful ill get my 'striped' hold back female with the striped adult male next season though. really excited about the idea of producing boodaries ith that nice 'RHD type' woma pattern with a yellow background!

Nice one Jason. Do you know what she weighed prior to cooling.

Hope incubation goes well. If the eggs are left outside o the coils is it a sign that they could be no good?

Cheers,
Dave

thanks mate, i have no idea on weight... i never weigh my animals, i breed them when they are a good size, healthy, and when i genuinely believe they are ready.

often when they leave eggs out of the coil they go bad... not always the case but from my experience it happens. e.g. my albino laid 26 eggs, left 6 to the side and coiled around the other 20, within two days those 6 were rotten and in the bin.


A pic i took the other day of one of my holdbacks from 09... male RHD, hope to pair him next season with my adult female who looks as good as him... should produce some outstanding RHDs! cant wait for that clutch!

The male is still showing lots of yellow, especially compared with the hatchies my pair produced. I think you've got something special happening with your pair and it should be very interesting to see what you can produce with some line breeding.

I've got a few nice little holdbacks that I can hopefully work into some projects and I might try and get a "yellow" line going with the male I got from you as well.

ill see how i go with this clutch, i may be able to fix you up with a 'yellow' female as well... get that project on its way faster!
my holdbacks from last season wont be ready next season, so it'll be another yr or 2 at least before i get a yellow to yellow mating
 
A few of the femal boodarie 11 in total. 1 odd shaped one but all health and well veined when candled.

she well looked well and still had good condtion after laying and had a really good feed today no lack in food response there :)

Eggs shots to follow

I didn't realize they would lay such large eggs! Great result. Now the wait for hatching!
 
well done mate, that's fantastic and a good size clutch to :)

They came out varing in size slighty. I got 6 easy in a SIM tub and then could only get 4 in the other and MR pointy eggs in the perlite by himself but it appears to be doing fine. Though it did look a bit wierd.

Have spoke to a few friends with woma who have got similar eggs and they hatched fine so time will tell with that one :)

I'm chaffed after last years results with her and she feeding like a beast so all is good in my woma world :)

Best of luck and success for the other woma breeders out there.

How have your girls gone Jason???

I'm totally new to the forum but here are a few pics of mine. She's a '10 hatchling and I've only had her a couple weeks. (I just found the forum while searching for species info.)

only the boodarie this season, which is all i tried, although as you may recall the RHD was showing signs even though she wasnt mated. they are due to hatch around the beginning of Dec... looking forward to it too!
 
Excellent news. Did your RDH girl actually become gravid?

Yes it will be good to see what they produce. Step 1 successful hatching and Step 2 a good sex ratio in the clutch. Thats all i am after :)

Welcome shetland this site isn't short on information and you can't go wrong with a woma in your collection :)

nar she wasnt gravid, she did have a phantom pregnancy though. im not even that worried about ratios etc, i just hope i hatch out some more striped animals and a few yellows as well.
 
Yommy - congrats mate. They are bigger than I thought they would be. The odd shaped one certainly is pretty weird looking, hope it goes the distance.

Cheers,
Dave

I hope to have a few males and females as it is a line i want to develop and some nice holdbacks is what i am aiming at.
The nice clean banded, thick or thin with the high yellow like the mother is what i am chasing.
If i get any stripped i'll let you know :)

Cheers Dave - pointy as i call him is doing well and has alot of good viens so we'll wait and see. It's on the perlite and the rest on h2o, so we'll so in about 55 days we'll know for sure :)
That 1 dodgey darwins egg i removed from the off/gone bad clump has come good so all is progressing well in the incubation stakes :)

Ryan - this girl has been holding out on me for a for days just to lay - and you have ones ready to hatch! arrrgh!

Good luck with your eggs hatching.

Cheers,
Dave
