Yes they were born in our living room.

Last year my kids brought home several snakes, 2 were gravid females. 1 Storeria dekayi (dekay brown snake) and 1 Storeria occipitomaculata (red belly snake)

When the babies were born, I decided to teach the kids about raising them over the winter.

Now they are all sub adults and more than ready to go and be free.

Our first accidental breeding was 2 years ago, we released all but one. I have encountered 2 of those in the wild since, Finding one this spring doing well was awesome.



Kind regards,
