2019 Miami Tessera X Coral Snow clutch (Flint X Cora)

MysticExotics

(formerly NWHeather)
This clutch is from my 2015 Miami Tessera paired with a SMR line Coral Snow female that I borrowed from a friend.
I wanted to test my male to see if he was an HD (Super) Tessera, and if he's het for Amel.
He's not either.

*Flint is available! See THIS thread for details.

This clutch was laid sooner than I expected, and didn't have a lay bin in her enclosure yet, so she laid them in the aspen, and I didn't see them for a couple days, so they were dehydrated. I focused on rehydrating them, and most looked like they recovered, but out of 15 eggs, only 3 went full term.
One has hatched so far, the other two are still absorbing yolk.

There are two normal babies and one Tessera.

Pictures of the sire, Flint, and the Coral Snow female, I'm calling her Cora.
Lastly, is the first baby to emerge, COR-19-01

Thank you! I'm watching the Coral Snow to see if she is going to lay a second clutch. She seems like she might. I kind of hope she does, so I can get s few more babies from her.

At the same time, if all of my current eggs hatch, it will triple the number of snakes I have. LOL
 
The other two babies have hatched!
COR-02 is another normal, and COR-03 is a Tessera.
I love the perfect stripe on the Tessera, and the borders are better than I expected.

Hope you get a second clutch, that's a neat pairing :grin01:

I do too! I'm not sure how long after the first clutch hatches that a female will lay the second clutch.
A female I got from a friend laid eggs shortly after I got her, and she laid the second clutch the same day that the first clutch hatched.

A female I got from a friend laid eggs shortly after I got her, and she laid the second clutch the same day that the first clutch hatched.

I'd image it would vary depending on several factors like the incubation temps and how heavily the female was fed after the first lay. I was trying to avoid one of mine from double clutching this year but she laid the second clutch on 4/14 and the first clutch pipped on 5/1.
 
I have never tried for second clutches but bigger healthy females will lay them anyway. From my experience these are smaller less fertile clutches and found that they are laid around the time the first clutch start to hatch.
 
I was out of town this week, and no new eggs, so I don't think she will.
I don't try for double clutches, but I have had a few that did anyways.

I'll keep her lay bin in for a bit in case.
 
One of the babies shed today. I'll get a better pic with my good camera after the other two shed.

The babies were offered their first meal today, and all three ate!
I snapped some quick pics before I fed them.
