Not Expecting, but.

This morning I was greeted by babies. I feel terrible that I didn't even know she was gravid. These are first babies for her. She's a smaller lite phase radix.
This little one was delivered into my hand. A couple seconds after this photo the scrub broke through the egg sack and took its first breath.

How many did she have?

How many did she have?

7 healthy little scrubs. I think she may have 1 more to come.

I think she had her last one which brings the total to 8.
Here's the last little scrub.
