Another litter Friday.......

rainbowsrus May 17, 2009 12:09 AM

So, I have weekend plans and need to get up real early Saturday morning. I also have a friend coming over to deliver something that evening so while my friend was over had to show off some of the collecton including the "next up" girls, noticed Vanilla had her tail up in the giving birth position. Woohoo!!! So much for getting to bed at a decent time....

Vanilla a month ago, big and gravid.....

Last night shortly after we found her, tail in the air and babies coming out...

She was irritated that we were watching so I closed the door and covered up her cage. She knew what she was doing. Checked back a little later and found....

The first pile that were born before I disturbed her....

And a smaller second pile that came after I left her alone....

All cleaned up and ready for individual tubs...

Vanilla (Super Ghost) bred to Lucky (Het Coral Albino pos het Anery), Lucky was not so lucky, he did not prove out het anery so....18 DH Ghosts, 50% Het Coral Albino.

I thought I already posted this once but it was gone so I edited it down for anything that could even remotely be against TOS. Hope it stays.

times. I have been up 40 hours straight trying to be there for a Leopard female that appears to have some retained slugs from last year. I got to get some sleep but I am afraid she may need me there and will do it while I finally sleep. Oh well, NICE litter.

That's too bad that Lucky didn't prove out het anery, I know you were really hoping for that. She had a great looking litter and it was tons 'o fun to be there during the 'action'. You have really produced some amazing stuff this year Dave! Big Congrats again!
