well its not nearly the best story because of the ending, but....

i bred a male lavender het snow to a female blizzard no known hets. expected out come should be half normal het amel,charcoal,lavender pos het anery a and half amel het charcoal lavender pos het anery a.

objective was to grow them up for a lavender blizzard and lavender charcoal group.

they incubated at roughly 84 degrees for 63 days. one egg out of 12 seemed to have gone bad after all that time on day 62 it began to sweat and developd mold pretty quickly. myself im wondering if these eggs are fertile. i figured this one was going to be infertile, happened to me last year with a leopard gecko clutch, went past due date, cut it nothing inside. so i cut the egg.

inside were two patternless white stillborn corns. i am assuming the male was het charcoal due to two white snakes in one egg. her being het anery would make it a 1:8 shot for a snow and again for another so 1:64 im assuming? the only way i can see them being anery a over anery b would be if she was homo for amel anery a and b and i couldnt tell?

i feel bad they didnt live but one was under developed the other looked pretty much like a regular hathling with bad spinal kinking.

i just wanted to share

I would wait to see what hatches. Before you start guessing. Those snakes could have passed on before they developed into any morphs.
 
Pigment is one of the last traits to develop in embryos, so you could just have been looking at two embyos that had not yet reached that stage of development. You need to wait and see what actually hatches to be sure of what's going on.
 
Wow. Ok, I have no knowledge of morphs and genetics. I just wanted to say that I think it is so interesting that they were twins. I had no idea that two snakes could be in one egg... I guess my rusty biology learnin' tells me that it would be possible. Just cool. Has anyone here hatched live twins?

Sorry yours didn't make it, Mark.

will do. yeah it sucked that they didnt make it.

but im sure someone on here has hatched out a pair of twins. there is a cool video on youtube from prehistoric pets he got like 18 reticulated python eggs and i wanna say half the eggs had twins. which is nuts.
