Corn snakes rule!
Oh, I am soooooooooooo excited. Yah, I finally got my first little pippie today. It's looking to be a normal from what his head looks like. I will take pictures later today and post tonight after work. I am so shaky right now, and so overjoyed.
 
About time!! Congratulations! I didn't want to tell you- but mine started pipping today, too. Day 72!
 
Awesome Nanci, Congrats! Here are a couple pics, they are not very good ones just hold me over's until my boyfriend gets out of bed!

Just checked on the little guy, he/she still just has his/her nose slightlly sticking out. Haven't noticed any tongue movement, is that normal?
 
Finally! Congratz!!!
Don't worry about the lack of tongue movement. Just chillin' in the egg there :D
Mine didn't flick much either... I think that's normal?

Nancy congratz to you too! And where are your pippie pics? :D
 
Yah, I am thrilled. I can't wait until more of them start to pip and for the first one to emerge all the way out of it's egg. Gosh, I have been trying to get a hold of my niece, she is 7 yrs old, her snake Rose is the mommy of these babies, and I have been wanting to tell her about the good news, she's not at home right now, so I can't tell her until later. She is going to be sooooooooooo happy. She has been counting down the days with me for the past couple of weeks, and always ask me about them. So I can't wait to tell her. I keep Rose for her because her daddy hates snakes, and her mommy doesn't want to have any snakes around because of the two big dogs they have.
 
I finally got to tell my niece the news, she is so excited as well as I am. She's wanting to come over tomorrow and see em if they are all the way out of the eggs by then, but I told her she could come over this weekend, that way they have more time to hatch and settle hopefully inside their containers. I came home from work and the one is still just sitting in it's egg, and the others have yet to pip.
 
Oh, yeah, forgot to mention it looks like it possibly could be a Anery, so does that mean both mom and dad snakes are het anery? Mom is a normal, dad is a Silver Queen Ghost corn.
 
More, better pics of the first little pippie.

Here are some more pics, let me know what you think it might be, anery, normal?

Looks like it could be an anery to me, normals usually have brownish eyes and that baby looks like it's eyes are greyish. Can't wait to see them all the way out!
 
That would be awesome, and maybe I might get some other things I wasn't expecting to get. Me neither, they sure take their sweet time. Still only one little guy/gal sticking it's head out. No other pips yet.
 
It always seems like no one pips for 24 hours after the first then you will get a little burst of pips.
 
congrats on the little anery!! Dad is a silver queen ghost, so he is homo for anery and hypo. Mom has to be het. anery!! (maybe she is het. hypo too, than you get hypo's and ghosts too :) )
