Hello all..

My gravid female hust did her deed and gave me 3 slugs, 3 still borns and one live neonate... A little disappointing but I am still very happy I have one!! Needless to say I will not be letting this little gaffer go!! Here are a few pics..

Well Rob the way I look at is like this. That's one more ETB than I've ever produced! Oh well man, one is better than none.
Congrats,

Id personally call that a huge achievment either way. You dont see to many people breeding these.

Congrats on the lil survivor!

That's an awesome little guy! They really look stunning. :) When you said she would drop soon, I didn't know you meant that soon! Has that one got the same pattern style as the mom?

Take care! At least you got one little beauty. :p

Thks for all the comments..

The yolk sac on the little survivor shrunk to almost nothing over night and just fell off a few hours ago.. the little one is now crusing aroung it's new enclosure.

Don --> She is no worse for wear although a little bit thin. Unlike my last female, this one went off food right after her post-ov shed for the entire gestation... and it took a little more of a toll on her.. She is really a great feeder and I'm sure she'll bounce back quick.

ROB:

Sorry to hear dude I knew you were stocked to see this litter.

Although congrats too in still having at least one, more is better but less is special too.

Next year.
