my tennis ball rat (how big she was) gave birth finally......I thought I heard weird sqeaking last night (early morning) and I just went to check on her...and there they were...atleast a few hours old.
I grabbed one of the pinks and gave it to my corn. I flicked it in the back of the head, it didn't move, stopped breathing, the started twitching! It still wasn't breathing though so i knew it was dead. The back of the head started to go black. Someone said they will twitch because of massive stimulation to the nerves? I hope so. I felt so bad
. I gave the mother some treats, and she is nursing now. And I will get some more for future feedings later......
wow, I still feel kind of bad....but the snake has to eat.....
I do have a question though.....those of you that are pagan (wicca, stregheria, witch craft, whatever one since pagan is supposed to be an umbrella term, or even indian) do you thank the mother for letting you have the baby? Or thank some god/dess? I hope that doesn't sound like a really strange/crazy question.....
