You made a comment earlier in this thread on anacondas sometimes eating slugs. In all of our breedings with green anacondas, the females always eat any slugs, or unfertilized ova, that are present within minutes of having completed parturition. There has never been an exception with our females. Additionally, I have never seen them bother any of the neonates however.
