Sometimes it just doesn't happen the way you hope it would. :(
Female #2 X Male #8 , F#2 is one of my first babies I ever produced (from my first clutch ever in 1993)
I guess the male was too worn out the two times he mated with her, I used him with 9 different females this year.
Well after all that fun , eventually you start to shoot blanks :noknow:

She was popping out infertile ovum's while Eastern #14 was giving birth today .
I saw 7 ovum's , there might have been more, out one end and in the other ! She was eating them every now and then.
Cant let them go to waste , they are good for them.

Wow what a beauty that female is! Sorry she didn't produce this year but it looks like you're gonna have your hands full with plenty of BTS babies even with the occasional one slugging out!
