131. Spring bank holiday babe

This neat little babe hatched out yesterday afternoon 30/05/2001.

Twas a 60 day incubation with hatch weight at 3 gram. Sire is Mohammad a normal with preserved wild caught bloodline genes and Dam is Lynn a classic normal type. So unless we have mixed up our eggs looks like this baby will develop into a classic normal. must say it has an interesting pattern to its dark bands which are dark black. Shame we won't have a sibling from this clutch as the othe egg collapsed.

130. There is still hope in the midst of sinking eggs.

Yes it has been a bit disappointing in terms of the number of eggs we have had that have reached full term. At the moment we are getting a low 33.3 % success rate due to lots of manky eggs. Even so we keep getting the odd ray of sunshine along the way including this baby that hatched out within the last couple of hours (27/05/2011). Fingers crossed the sibling egg pops tonight. Vital statics on this baby are an incubation period of 59 days and hatch weight of 3 gram. Dam is Lulu and sire is Isuzu. The dark bandings is brownish so looks like a hypo.

129. Another Ron Tremper baby

Must say our Tremper albinos are pretty reliable in providing us with offspring. Here is another to go with the 6 or 7 we have already hatched out this season. This baby hatched 21/05/2011 after a 57 day incubation and weighed in at 3 gram. Ma is Diva and red eyed Tremper eclpise and Pa is Nero a Diablo Blanco. So all in all some nice het genes. The upper band on the neck is a bit unbroken so expect this baby to lose its banding as it grows.

128. And now for something completely different.

This is our first Tremper APTOR of the 2011 season, or maybe even a RAPTOR, we just need to get a good look at the eyes. Just hatched out today 20/05/2011. It is the sibling of the baby in post 127. Only biographical difference is a 56 day incubation and a hatch weight of 3 gram.

127. The Trempers just keep on coming

This baby arrived this afternoon (19/05/2011)after a 55 day incubation period.Quite small and just makes 2 gram on the scales. Dam is Scarlett a RAPTOR and the Sire is Nero a Diablo Blanco, so he or she is carrying some great het genes.

126. Tremper ahoy!

Literally just found this baby hatched out this afternoon 17/05/2011. This is our fourth Tremper of the 2011 season so far. Incubation period for this baby was 55 days and hatch weight was 3 gram. Parents are both leos bred by ourselves and their first offspring. Mum is Lisa a blizzard and the Dad is Juno a red eyed Tremper eclipse.

125. Hi my name is keyhole and i am a 2 gram monster.

That's because I have the shape of a keyhole on my back. I hatched out 15/05/2011 and about 5 hours after my sibling in post 124. So I have the same vital boigraphic details as my sibling. Well apart from being 2 gram compared to their 3 gram

124. Just one big push and I'm out

This baby was caught making a break for it this morning (15/05/2011). She had an incubation period of 57 days. Not got the hatch weight at the moment as we have only just got up. Parents are our ever reliable Marge (hypo) and Isuzu.

123. 2011 hatchlings now looking for new homes

After a slow start to the 2011 breeding season we are now pleased to announce that some of our babies are sufficently grown on to be made available to buyers. So far we have made just 4 leos available but we expect this number to rise in the coming weeks. All the leos we currently have available are pictured on our website at

122. Hello I'm domino head.

This picture was probably taken within 2 hours or thereabouts after the baby shown crashed out of the egg. Fairly certain on this as it was not in the incubation box at todays (14/05/2011) lunch time check. Howver she/he was there at 16:00 hrs when we had a peek. As you might see this baby has 3 white dots on its head, hence the post title. We would be very surprised if the dots remain into adulthood as the baby looks like it will be a normal with hatch colouration quickly fading with growth. This baby is the sibling of the baby in post 121 so parentage details are the same. Incubation period was 55 days and hatch weight came in at 3 gram.

121. One more fresh from the incubator

Down below is a baby that hatched 12/05/2011 after a 53 day incubation. Weight at hatch was 3 gram. Parents are Patricia (patternless) and the Sire wis Isuzu a bit of a mongrel normal with broad pattern tendency. looks like this baby will grow out as a normal as the banding is quite dark.

120. Update on wobbly tiny tot post 119

We have had a closer look at tiny tot today. Looks like he/she has a bit of a club foot on one leg with a couple of toes fused together which is a bit sad. However, we are pretty confident she will be okay and develop fairly well, as most disabled leos do well in captivity when not faced by the constant threat of predation and scarce enviromental resources.

119. Tiny tot

This baby was found to have hatched out on the morning of 11/05/2011 after a 57 day incubation and with a weight of 2 grams. He or she is a bit wobbly on the legs and seems to be limping on one of them. So not the most lively hatchling we have produced. First thoughts on this babys morph is that it was a fairly standard Tremper but on later inspection the boby colour is quite light and perhaps a Mack Tremper?. Parents are Alaska, sold to us as a Diablo Blanco? and Red Ron our red eyed Tremper eclipse.

118. May babes.

This are our latest hatchlings. Both are from the same clutch produce by Lulu (hypo carrot tail) and Isuzu (some sort of mongrel/aberrant hi-yellowish with broad stripe tendency). Hatch date was 6th(lower) & 7th (upper0 May 2011 after 57 & 58 days of incubation. Weight for both was a decent 4 gram.Looks like they will be hypos as the dark banding is brown rather than the black for normals.
