Harriet's small but nice litter, STRIPES

rainbowsrus Aug 27, 2011 10:00 PM

Was looking at Harriet this morning since she was out of her hide and was thinking she might not be gravid. Clearly not huge. Then this afternoon I went in to clean some cages and noticed wigglers in the cage with mom...

One on the hide, one in the water bowl and one white belly to the right between the frame and the small piece of wood. Mom's on the floor...

There were two in the water bowl and one still on the tub lid with a slug. Total was 7 live, one still and two slugs. But, as I would have expected, there were stripes in the litter. 1.2 stripes and 2.2 normals.

Pics of the group were hard as they would not stay still, wiggly lil babies!!!

I agree, not as much joining of side blotches but still look pretty whacky!!!
