My Children’s python (Antaresia childreni) has been sitting on her clutch of nine eggs since laying them on the 25th of October last year. They hatched on Boxing Day. I had wanted to write a longer post and make mention of brooding behaviour and physiology, but time is against me so I’ll just post some pictures.

Congrats Stewart! You’re a dad!
Thanks Lyn! I am, however, a neglectful dad. As soon as they hatched I put them up for adoption because I had neither the time nor the inclination to look after them. Does that make me the world’s worst parent?!?
