                      | congrats on a nice bunch of eggs!! and fingers crossed for nice odds, a couple of super pastel lesser would be nice  looking at her, I would say you just got lucky last year with the odds and shes just a nice pastel as he head doesn't look blushed enough to be a super, but stranger things have happened, and like you say, this clutch will tell you hopefully

                      | Why do people always put the eggs into incubators rather than just leaving them with the snake? Just a higher success rate? |

 its harder to get the perfect conditions for the eggs when you do maternal incubation. you need as higher a humidity as possible, and stable temps, and you cant always get this with maternal incubation without putting the mother at risk, a risk that most breeders do not feel it is worth.
 there has been a few people that have used maternal incubation with success, but theres always a chance that it can go wrong

                      | thanks all :) 
 im not bothered if she's a super or not
 and i know i brought her as a normal pastel
 and 99% think i got lucky last year ;)
 
 i put eggs in the incubator
 to aim for the right condition they require
 after all these are pets and i think another 2 months of the mother not feeding is inappropriate
 if they dont have to

                      | Brilliant result, again  
 Agree with the comments above, for me its about getting the mother feeding again to get some weight back on, My Bumblebee was 1900g, had 8 eggs and was 1150g. When i held her up she resembled a wet sock.

                      | Is that why they must be a certain weight before breeding then, because they lose so much? |

                      | I had often wondered why eggs were incubated rather than mummy doing the business. Now I know! Hoping to breed from Ria next year or the one after. She is currently 800g and just over a year old so a way to go yet but the way she is stuffing in the big rats it wont be long! |
