2014 corn pairing at Elemental Exotics.

[Charis]

Only doing one breeding of corns this year. Vash, Phantom Masque, poss het Amel x Stormy, Phantom, suspected Masque, poss het Amel. 2/6/14 was the first witnessed lock between them I have seen, although they were paired a few times before that.

[LiL Zap]

That clutch is gonna be pretty impressive!

[kwhitlock]

Very pretty corns!

[Charis]

Thanks! Hopefully they will give us some good eggs! Would be especially awesome if their het Amel proves out.

[Tsubaki]

Can't wait to see the result, interesting match :D

[Charis]

And round two!

[Tsubaki]

This is getting very X-rated haha, if they don't produce nice eggs now.. you can't blame it on a lack of trying.. :D

[Charis]

Stormy is currently opaque in what I'm hoping is her prelay shed, fingers crossed!

[Charis]

Stormy started laying eggs awhile ago. Up to three pretty looking fertile eggs that I can see so far.

Stormy started laying eggs awhile ago. Up to three pretty looking fertile eggs that I can see so far.

Awesome! good luck!

[Charis]

Up to at least 10 and possibly a good bit more, can't see well enough for an accurate count. I've only been peeking in the side of her lay box, to disturb her the least, and her coils are in the way. But from what I can see, they all appear very well formed with no slugs.

[Charis]

Here are some pictures. If I counted right, there are 26 eggs in this clutch with one maybe a bit iffy.

[sharthun]

Awesome!!!!! :D:D

[Charis]

Here is Stormy, a bit deflated after losing 204 grams from laying her eggs.

[Charis]

Here are some more egg pictures, two look slightly iffy but the others are looking very good.

http://i903.photobucket.com/albums/ac238/MaidofChainz/The%20Corn%20Snakes/915a8258dafb1a859275abd35ef4d4fe_zps3fad0e7a.jpg

This one is the only one not connected to the others and despite what seems to be good humidity, has dented in. It does however have good veins at the moment.

http://i903.photobucket.com/albums/ac238/MaidofChainz/The%20Corn%20Snakes/da52a7f5f183e1df16e3c86c4ab4818c_zps4928761f.jpg

Then the middle one at the bottom of the picture is the other iffy one that had a window and is smaller than all of the others. It has no veins that I can see but is not positioned well for candling. It is firmly connected to other eggs.

[Teal]

Gorgeous snakes! Best of luck with the clutch... I can't wait to see what comes out!

[jpsteele80]

It's always a good feeling when you see them locked up and later on when those eggs come popping out, can't wait to see what comes out of them :D

[Charis]

Today is day 41 of incubation for the corn eggs. I hate waiting!!

[Charis]

Today is day 60 and one (only one, darn it!) egg just started denting in and looks like it might hatch sometime this century.

[Charis]

Finally!! Woke up to four pippies this morning! All little Phantom noses so far.

[sharthun]

Congrats! Cute little heads poking out!;)

[jpsteele80]

Congrats on the eggs, she still looked pretty good after laying the eggs

[Vysathi]

Yay!!! Congrats!

[SnoopySnake]

Congrats! I love that first pic with the little head poked all the way out. :D

[Charis]

Now at five pips and one completely out.

First baby, SxV61114-1 or likely to just be called #1. Came in at 7 grams, wonderful temperament so far. And first gender check looked female. (I candled her briefly, before getting her squared away) Will check gender a few more times after she starts eating though, before officially labeling #1 a girl.

[sharthun]

Beautiful corn!:cool:

[Charis]

Another one has emerged and one more has pipped, with a third being halfway out. While I moved the one out to it's enclosure, my husband snapped a few more pics of the pippies.

Then here is SxV61114-2 or #2. This one is 6 grams and also appeared female, although it really didn't want to cooperate with me checking, so I'm really not sure on that.

[Charis]

The final baby to emerge last night before bed, SxV61114-3. Weighs 7 grams and maybe male.

[Charis]

There were a total of 4 out this morning and 3 pips. All Phantoms so far.
Baby pile!

SxV61114-4 is 6 grams and came up as maybe male.

SxV61114-5 is 7 grams, kind of bald looking head, looks a bit like Vash. Maybe male.

[Charis]

SxV61114-6 is 6 grams. Neat marking on neck. Looks female maybe.

[sharthun]

Cute little ones!

[Cmwells90]

Beautiful corns! Congratz!

[Charis]

Thanks everyone!

[Vysathi]

Beautiful little ones!

[Charis]

SxV61114-8 is 6 grams and maybe candled male. He is the closest thing to a hateling in the clutch so far and that little bit of ill temper was very mild, just flattened his head a bit and looked askance at my hand when I went to pick him up. But he got over his dislike and then didn't want to get off my hand into his enclosure.

Unfortunately my candling light appears to be dying, the switch to turn it off has broken and it's not very bright anymore. It's a cheap LED reading light I got about 8 year ago and it cost less than $3, so it doesn't owe anyone anything more but now I'm going to have to find a new one ...

[Charis]

Another one out. This one surprised me a bit, as it's from the egg(s) under the big middle clump that I've never managed to see very well and still not sure if there is only the one egg under there or two. The upper eggs haven't pipped yet. Hadn't even known that egg had pipped!

SxV61114-9. Weighs 6 grams and no idea on gender as my poor LED has about officially bitten the dust.

[Charis]

And the tenth one is finally out. SxV61114-10 is the smallest so far at 5 grams.

[sharthun]

I wonder if they will keep that blue color around the eyes! Me like!:cool:

[Charis]

Unfortunately no, they won't keep the blue. They are Anery B (also called Charcoal) and Standard Hypo, the trade name for which combo is Phantom. All Charcoal based morphs hatch with those blue "eyebrows" but then lose them as they mature. It's the surefire way to tell a Charcoal hatchling from an Anery one.

Really cool looking while young though!

Next 2 are out and 3 more pipped. All Phantoms, have 7 more chances for a Blizzard though. SxV61314-11 is 6 grams.*

All but two eggs have pipped now and are all Phantoms. Thinking that I'm not going to get lucky and hit that long shot Blizzard.

Got a new LED candling light, man is it soooooo bright! So easy to see things now! The old one must of been growing dimmer for a long time. I'll have to go through and candle all the hatchlings with the new light here soon.

SxV61414-20 weight 6 grams. Neat saddles. Candled male.*

Good luck! One more chance! ;)

Finally! The last remaining egg just pipped. It's another little Phantom. No Blizzards for me, oh well.

So how many total hatchlings in this clutch? They look awesome!

[Charis]

There were originally 26 eggs laid, 1 was a slug and then 3 went bad early in incubation. Then, unfortunately on the 14th, 1 of the 2 remaining unpipped eggs started to look sickly and I cut it open. The baby inside was nearly full term but had failed awhile before that. It was also a Phantom. So that leaves 21 babies.

[Charis]

And here is the final baby! SxV61614-21, weighing in at a whooping 5 grams. Candled female. She has some neat patterning too.

I candled all of them the other day with the new light, there are a few that I'm quite uncertain about the results on, but first tally is 13 girls and 8 boys.

[Cmwells90]

I love that last female, she's beautiful! congrats!!

[Charis]

Thank you! Now I just hope they all eat readily!

[Charis]

As of today, 13 babies have shed and been offered their first meal, 12 ate very fast and 1 refused, number 2. Not bad odds so far!

[Charis]

Here are some post shed, pre-feeding attempt pictures of number 20, he does have the neatest markings! If I was keeping any, I'd be very tempted by him! He has been spoken for.

All of them have been offered food at least once now. Most have eaten twice. And there were 3 that refused their first meal but one of those just ate a boiled pink.

[Charis]

Took some updated pictures of a number of the corn hatchlings. It was overcast today for the most part, so these were taken outside.

SxV61114-4. I tried very hard to keep these pictures organized but these next two are marked Number 4 but I'd almost swear these are two different snakes ... So don't know about these ...

As a very interesting note, a local friend wanted to breed his corn "pair" this year but then found out that both are actually females. So he borrowed Vash on a breeding loan even though he didn't match up very good with their genes. Well, the first clutch from one of those pairings just hatched, the female is an Anery A with unknown hets. Surprisingly, all the babies that hatched, all 20 of them, are ghosts and Anery A's! Which means that at the very least Vash is het Anery A or possibly even homo Anery A, making him a Platinum instead of the Phantom he was sold as. Making these babies either 50% het Anery or 100% het Anery.
