Great insight. So you can tell, even manipulate the sex by the temperature of incubation?

Thanks. I do temp sex the hatchlings. If the incubation temps are kept at 78-80 degrees the result is usually 100% male. At 85-87 degrees it will result in 100% female. If temps are 81-84 it will give you a mixed bag of both males and females.

Males generally hatch between 65 to 72 days, and females hatch between 45 to 55 days.

Do you get the feeling that we are all stood behind you, watching this egg over your shoulder? Because we are.

Lol, yes... I checked this morning and there has been very little progress. Hopefully there will be some change by the time I get off work today. I'll post pics as the egg opens up more.:)

Until a couple months ago, I was getting emails for sales from the dealership where I got the Traverse (as if I want to buy another new car less than 2 years after I got this one ). Now I’m getting offers to buy it back. If I could do without it, I bet i could make a profit.
It is unreal that they would give me 18K for it when I paid 19K for 5 years ago. Imagine the poor sucker that would then be stuck buying it for probably 28k.
When I bought my BD prez, the Mercedes, I had every intention of trading the Highlander in. Figured I would buy a cheap SUV for transporting cats. I drove it there and they said they would give me what I asked for (10K off the Mercedes) and then at the last minute, when I was supposed to be cleaning it out, I changed my mind. I drove it home and had the Mercedes delivered. The first reason, I could not see myself slinging trapped cats in the back of it driving them to and from vet visits, second reason was I had just had a JBL stereo with great speakers installed in it. I would have never found a cheap SUV to replace it for carting cats and now I am so glad I kept it. Not so happy every year when I have to pay to insure 2 vehicles though.

We have those around but I haven't seen one yet this year... they're usually bright green and quite difficult to see but I know there are a myriad of sub species....their reproduction cycle is both interesting and kind of unsettling....looks at wife and keeps mouth firmly shut :lol:

Keeping in mind that my taste buds are crap - esp. compared to 5+ year ex-smokers :wub:

I prefer the 0.3 z-coil down at the lower end 20-35hz @ 28watts. Whereas I like my ni80 0.7ohm 30*2/40 Dvarw coil at 60-70hz range @ 24watts - using the same raspberry juice in both. I briefly tried a mint choc in f0 mode, which was good - but the raspberry was OMFG.

From what Tim Wiseman's been talking about below his z80 review here:
Innokin Coolfire Z80 Kit 80W with Zenith II - Review
If you're low in wattage, go higher in hertz and vice versa. You can try matching the hertz to the coil's resistance which works for me - but in your case, I'd use wattage as a guide. Unless you're using the pre-installed 0.8ohm coil? Either way, try it between 80-100hz.

And it may be that you just get better flavour in wattage only mode. Which I'm sure some people will find that they do.

And from Innokin. The 4th-generation Vape Technology has launched

The reason females hatch sooner is because we are more efficient and get things done is a more timely manner.....:D

LMAO, this is true. Guys peak at 18, mature at 30 (maybe)... I don't know how y'all put up with us.

My wife is working from home today and sending me updates. The little one is making progress. Perhaps an appearance by the end of the day will take place.

Their favourite prey around here are black house spiders. The preying mantis tricks the spider by tweeking their web rhythmically to simulate a smaller prey item stuck in the web.
The spider comes out to inspect and the mantis attacks.

I took this photo through a window a few summers ago. I watched her crawl up the webbed pane of glass and tweek the web in all different spots. Took her about 20 minutes but eventually got her spider meal.

    Sounds exactly like my last relationship...
