More lavenders still to come?
Monday, July 7th, 2008It was hatchling feeding night last night. Second feed for half of the lavender clutch, and first feed for the rest of them - all but one ate defrost without any problems. I’m really pleased that the first clutch Sebastian’s sired has proved to be such strong feeders, like he was as a baby.
Raspberry seems to be going into slough (I say “seems to be” as I find it really hard to tell with her sometimes). I really expected her to lay this year, so I’m hoping that this is finally her pre-lay slough. She’s been mated to Sebastian for lavenders het hypo opal, so fingers crossed there.
I am finally seeing veins in most of Barzona’s eggs now. There’s a couple I’m not sure on yet, and of course they’re in a big clump so I can’t get to the bottom ones, but I think they’re doing well. I can’t wait to see if a little cinder pops its head out of one of those eggs!
