When I got home from work on Tuesday around 5:00 p.m. I was suprised to see a litter of jungles. Just like Jeremy's post breeding boas can be very humbling experience, because a month before I was expecting a litter of leopards from a striped leopard X striped leopard and got 9 premature & 10 pills. The Jungle female het albino I got from Russ Lockenwitz and the male salmon het striped albino I produced. I never saw copulation since they stayed under the newspaper. I guess they were a shy couple. Anyway,a few months later he didn't show any interest, so I took him out gave he a power bar (aka medium rat) and put him back in a week later and still showed no interest. So back to his home he went. Goofy me I didn't think nothing of it when she had her POS and didn't take note of it.

So I didn't know what to expect from her.I must admit I did get a little excited when she went under the newspaper again and messed it up a couple of days before she dropped. That was the sweet part.

Now the bitter is my 82year old dad has been in a care home the last 4 months. On Monday night he was rushed to the hospital because his blood sugar had dropped and had a slight case pneumonia. On Wednesday my bother and I were asked by our family physician how aggressive to we treat my dad and if he's brain dead do we keep him alive. To say the least I couldn't even enjoy my surprise for the next few days. To make a long story short he's doing well and back at the care home. So now I feel I was blessed twice.

Sorry for bad pics. On yeah, 16 live, 2 pills and looked like 3 smashed by mom, 2 albinos and 1 jungle no wicked aberrancies.
2 jungle sunglows
1 jungle albino
4 jungle salmons poss het albino
6 jungles poss albino
1 albino poss jungle
2 normals poss albino
Now I know why Pete likes them; I have to look at them everyday.
No problem feeders. As I'm feeding mice fuzzies. Thanks for looking and hope everybody gets a suprise like I did.

Regards,
Derek Yagi
