Here a pic of my other hatch from May 21, 2010, maternaly incubated again. Another Sorong pairing and both parents unrelated from the other hatch I posted a couple of days ago. This one is easy to tell when she's gravid as she turns hormonal blue.

And the mate for this one.

I really like these maternal pic's!!! and that mom is a beauty :cheers:

Awesome! I love that blue! Too bad she doesn't stay that color! lol! Dad looks great too! Congrats on the clutch!

Congrats that is really cool to see!

WOW! That's such a cool color!!

How many did she give you? Is she as docile as the other girl?

HOLY COW! Mom is crazy BLUE! I love it ..... Awesome colours!
Congrats on another great clutch! :)

Be sure to post pictures of all the babies once you get them out of there!!!

very cool pics and i love the color on the female wow and all the little ones congrads

Awesome stuff...That maternal incubation pic is cool as hell -

That is just so cool!! Just kinda makes ya think.. go back to late 70's.. 77? when Terry Odegaard, Trooper Walsh, etc were just getting them to breed and hatch in captivity and how hard they had to work to come up with ways to do it. And now it's to a point where temps can be controlled, humidity, etc to a point where you can let mom do it herself. Amazing...
And sorry if that just made me sound really old and nobody else here knows what or whom I am speaking of, lol!

The color change thing reminds me of how Chameleons do that. And all this maternal stuff. I love seein' this. If it ain't broke don't fix it eh? :yes: Congrats again.

Again, that is just so cool!

OK, off topic a bit but I wonder if anyone's thought to try something like this nest box with Ball Pythons. I've seen the tubs with the moss in them but this more resembles a den. Just thinkin' out loud in the wrong thread. :dunno:

There's a sight you don't see very often, great pic.

Reminds me of a bird box Quig, could be worth experimenting with.

How could you not know trooper???...lmfao!!!!!!

Congrats on another maternal....
Question (because im not a GTP guy).But why does she turn blue when gravid?

How could you not know trooper???...lmfao!!!!!!

Kids... lmao!!:cheers:
(Also, same way most people don't realize that Terry did it four or fives months before Trooper did!):rolleyes:

Very cool. I do not think I have ever seen a pic like that with mom and babies!

Very, very nice. Great pic. How many babies did you end up with? :cheers:

Another great shot! I love the contrast between the blue on mom and the bright yellow on the pile of spaghetti!

For some reason Home Depot didn't have "Hormonal Blue" in their paint swatches :dunno:

Thats a cool pic!
