Three Bell Albinos!!!!!! I'm liking these odds!!! Another clutch in the incubator and female is still laying, it's her first year.

Brat was the first one

Now joined by this really pink little one. My first trempers hatched out looking pink like this, thought I'd see more of what Bratt looks like. I'm wondering if this is a Hybino?

I'm hopping that I'll be able to take some pics of the third one soon. He/she came out of the egg part of the way last night, and I thought it didn't make it, wasn't moving, didn't seem to be breathing. :( I nudged it to see if it was alive and it didn't move, so I pulled it out of the egg to see what it looked like, and the little stinker jumped. Still has some yolk attached and seems weak. It's in ICU incubator container fighting to make it. He/she looks just like it's clutch mate above.

Thank you Scott & Nikki.


The father is Strongbad a Tang Bell Albino, mom is Brownie a Super Hypo tang het Bell Albino. When you pair two like this about half would be Bell albino and half would be normal het bell albino. So getting 3 Bell Albinos out of the eggs is really good, I'm beating the odds as of now.

I've got an update on the little one already. After the last post I peeked into the incubator to see a missing hatchling. He/she dug under the paper towels, removing itself from the yolk. Needed to get it into another little container without all the perlite. So I took pics of the feisty little one. :) Still has some yolk and umbilical cord attached with a little blood, that has me a little worried, but we'll see.

Sweet! The second looks like how Hybinos do when they hatch. Hopefully the third pulls through.

I've had pretty normal odds with my Tang Bell x SHT het Bell pair so far with five albinos and four hets. One egg went bad.

Thank you Michael, I'm sure he/she'll be just fine too. But I'm still keeping it in an airtight deli with very moist PT, and in the incubator to make sure that umbilical cord heals up before moving to the hatchling rack.

Congratulations Felicia!!
Can't beat those odds. I had a few that hatched out with the yolk and umbilical cord still attached. I kept them on very moist almost wet paper towels for the next 48 hours and they did just fine, as I think yours will. They will all tang up nicely for you too. Strongbad is one tangy dude himself.:main_thumbsup:
Again congrats!!
