My possible HET female was confirmed to be gravid, so I should have my first litter of BRB's shortly. My vet had just bought a doppler, and had asked if she could test it on the snake I thought was gravid. My wife loaded up the snake (as I am working out of town) and took it in. The issue is that the doppler is still in-transit. Thus, a quick free x-ray was done, and yes at least 13 babies. The x-ray was only part of the bulge, so there should be more. I was getting worried that she was not gravid and there was something serious wrond, so glad to have the x-ray done.

She was bred to a HET male, so fingers are crossed she is also a true HET.
