Granites are finally here

SoLA Jul 10, 2009 05:12 PM

Mom was a tad on the smaller end compared to what most people think of as typical for mother anacondas, but she has always been kept at a solid weight for the 5 or so years I have had her. She just had her first litter of 12 babies today. The father was also a granite yellow.

She had 12 live babies, 0 slugs, 0 stillborn (unless she ate any, but she had not given birth when I went to work this morning, and I found 12 when I got home).

Hope you all enjoy. I just took a picture of one of the babies but they all came out with this granite look.

Also, congrats to the other people who got anacondas recently!

Gorgeous. Recessive trait?

Very nice patterns on those guys, do you have any photos of the adults? Good work.

Here is a picture of the mom. The dad was actually the more funky of the two and most of the babies certainly look more like him. I will try and get some more pics soon.

Thanks
