These little guys started pipping on Sunday, 64 days after being laid and the last one finally made its way out of the shell just a few hours ago.
So far they look pretty bright and have nice clean patterns. I can't wait to see what they look like after shedding and even growing some. They definitely look het Motley to me, but only a couple came out with a hint of Diffused head pattern.
Thanks guys, I had to wonder about myself with this project since the best Diffused snakes have no dorsal pattern and that's all Motley is about, but I thought "What the hell..".
There are 9 hatchlings.
Split bellies? Please elaborate. I have a feeling I know what you're talking about but I've not seen it in person.
I did look at the bellies, but you can't really see the belly checkers from about halfway on down, but they didn't look like the typical bellies either. I'll let them shed first before I really start to look and take pictures, at least that's been my experience with freshly hatched Amels, can't really see much till after the shed.
I know they're full of piss and vinegar though, just about every one of them has bitten me so far just moving them to a different container.
