We spent friday and saturday at Fernandina Beach in north Florida. I came home today and found that Valerie had delivered her litter. Valerie is my smallest and orangest breeder female Peruvian. She is around 5.5 feet long. She was born in 2005. She had a litter of 10 last year. This litter is 13 live healthy babies. There were no slugs or stillborns in the cage when I found the litter. The litter was already dispersed around the cage so I am guessing they were born yesterday. As you can see in the photos the problem with this subspecies is that the babies are very plain colored. Valerie and my other breeders were plain like these babies until they were around 2 years old. They do color up some after the first couple of sheds. Most of my other adult Peruivans are less orange and more red than Valerie.

LOL, to many snakes to list, last count (02/01/2010):
42.61 BRB
27.40 BCI
And those are only the breeders
lots.lots.lots feeder mice and rats 
Nice! I noticed very pronounced head stripes on the babies!
If I was selective breeding for the thick dark headstripes of the gaigei subspecies these four would have to be keepers. These snakes are very different than Brazilians though they will lose a lot of this dark as they grow. I finished sexing them and there are 5 males and 8 females in the litter.
nice bold ones there. specialy first and fourth pic,
I still love this lil guy from you tho. He just gets better every shed.
11 of the 13 ate live pinky rats sunday night.
awesome. congrats.
