If she had popped out blood boas, you would not be asking if they were or were not bloods. I'm guessing you do not have bloods, but pics would help. Also, if all 11 babies look the same, it would be 1 in a 1,000,000 that you produced an all blood litter of 11 babies from a het x het breeding. One of the parents may not be het, or thet both may not be hets. It is also possible that you just hit extremely horrible odds, and they are hets and did not produce any bloods, but that is highly unlikely. So assuming one or neither of the parents is het for blood, I personally would sell the babies as normals at normal prices. I would however, let the buyers know that there is a slim chance the babies are het. blood in case they breed them in the future. If one parent is het, the babies are 50% het bloods. If neither is a het, then there is no chance. You do not know from your breeding if either is het or not though. The babies should grow up to look similar to your adults.

Above are just the facts. They are not meant to seem smart or rash. Feel free to charge a little more for your babies if you desire. They may be smokin' normals, but without pics I don't know. You could also charge a little more because there is a chance they are het. blood. Good luck with the babies and congrats.
