I'm pretty excited about my first litter ever last night, and I got to watch the whole thing and even help out momma. Mom is an anery and the father was purchased as a hypo het albino 66% possible het anery. He has now proved to be a triple het. When mom was giving birth there were 2 babies trying to come out at the same time and got stuck so I had to help her with removing them, one had a big belly towards the tail, (pic below) is that unabsorbed yolk? it's soft to the touch. Mom was great, I removed 90% of the babies with her still in the cage and she could care less. Anyway, she gave me 28 live babies and 2 still borns, no slugs..not bad for a first time mom and dad huh? My final count so far is:
5 ghost 50% het albino
4 anery 50% het albino
6 hypo het anery 50% het albino
9 normal het anery 50% het albino
More pics to follow once they shed.
