Congrats, thanks for sharing.

I've been meaning to find out, and by looking at that pic I guess I now know. When placing python eggs in the vermiculite, you just place them on top? No need to put them any deeper?

Pics courtsey of longtom,
zulu,- bhp eggs are pretty big but these are actually the smallest eggs Ive had out of a bhp, Had the bumble bee in with her for short time before I decided to keep averything local specific as always. So maybe the large clutch size and small egg size is a result. Time will tell. Normally pythons will have large eggs with few numbers fist off, but as they age they have smaller eggs with larger clutche sizes.

That's cool Rockster Will be interesting to see the size of her next clutch. Coincidentaly my BHP layed 9 eggs last season, (her first clutch), but this year she only laid 6 and it was with the same male. Stay here mate, I'd love to know what she drops next year
