Baby Rosies

Rosy-enthusiast · 06-22-05, 05:03 PM

I have had this pair of 1.1 pair of rosies for around 5 months and today when I woke up there were 5 babies (no slugs) in the substrate. This has been my first snake batch ever so I am so happy for myself. The person I bought these from didnt know if she was pregnant or not because he kept them together. Im just wondering how exactly I should keep the babies? Is there any special things I should know? I heard that they shed after one week and then you feed them there first meal?

Thanks

Keep them moist the until they shed for the first time, else keep them as the adults. I would wait about 7-10 after the shed to try feeding.

I offered them water, is that ok? I will mist them once a day.

Be patient they may not take there first meal right away. And also get you hands on about 30 one day old pinks. Get them now and stay with f/t. They grow slow to a point. Remember Patients.

yes let them have water in there, as they can dehydrate. They shoudn´t, but always be safe.
