well the first litter there were 9. theres only five left. they were born on the 18th. their a good size so i would like to think that theyll be ok. there was a runt who was kicking around a while but i think they finally ate him.
the 2nd litter of six was born on the 27th. at which time there were seven of the priginal babies still there. as of last night there was only one left from the 2nd litter and i could plainly see three carcasses in the tote.
so either i had alot of sick babies or i suspect one of the mothers just ate them all. im thinking the next time they get pregnant i may seperate them. if ones eating them then shell be snake food. '
5 outta 16 as pretty crappy imo. is this normal for first litters?
