Twins X 2

[CrousesCorns]

I thought this was really cool when I discovered them. Two sets of twin from the same clutch. One set was Ambers and the other was Normals. The other (3rd) head was a Ghost. This was a Christmas clutch with anerys also in the mix.

Anyone else have 2 sets in the same clutch before?

Ooh, they are so adorable!! I would die if I hatched twins!! I can't wait to hear how much the twins weigh compared to the single clutchmates.

That is awesome having two sets of twins, I wonder if there is a way to breed the twin producing gene into various different projects. Is anyone working on something like that?

Working as always!

I was so excited! I have only bred 2 years now. This probably won't happen again for a long time.

There was another egg in those pictures (the one beside the ambers) that was as big as the twin eggs. I thought there might be a shot at 3 sets in the same clutch. That egg gave a really large normal tough.

Weights wasn't that much different. 1 to 2 grams if i remember correctly. The main difference was that size of the eggs in general. Twin eggs were a lot larger than the singles.

That's interesting. When Jenea Woods hatched the tri-color hoggy twins, they were tiny- like two grams!!
If I remember correctly. Half the size of the single babies. I wonder if the size is affected by whether the twins
are fraternal or identical. Hers were identical. I think most are.
