Now this is.. well just plain odd. My female albino had 10 babies today, the odd part is she has had contact with NO male since January.

I had a Proven DH Sunglow in with her until January- but no one since, not for cleaning day, not for anything. I have heard of retained sperm and never knew what to really think and now look at this??!!.

I had NO idea she was gravid and I have been feeding her normal plus a little extra to prep for this year. To top it off, for some odd reason I even had her out last week to show her off to some friends and even let some people hold her. I never do this.... nor do they usually care to hear, see or talk about them.

I have my doubts any will make it.. some look full term but still have huge sacks outside.. I have them all tucked in and will see what happens.

For me it seems newborns sure are hard to decide if they are actually ALIVE at all. 8 out of 10 passed the test, most with just chest movements after I prodded a little. Poor little guys and gals.

10 babies.. 6 Sunglow / albino 2 normal 2 hypo
