surprised. My father would always tell me that and today I was really surprised when my oldest female gave birth to a small, healthy litter of babies. 11 squirmies and five slugs. My BRB's are still not with me and I was working on Alcatraz Island this afternoon when my sister called to tell me my female gave birth. It was late afternoon before I made it over and pulled them out of the big vivarium. Mom was fine and very hungry. Here are a couple of pics. Oddly enough she threw slugs last year on the 23rd of May. I suspect by the wide dispersal today that she threw last night. Consistent. Interestingly the 23rd is the anniversary of my fathers passing.



Enjoy!
Paul
