    Ne. red phase radix is giving birth

    Rita is giving birth as I type. I wish I has good news but so far she's passed 3 slugs(jellies).

    Make that 1 live born little Het, now. Now it's 2. I mean 3, she's really spitting them out.
    Up to 7 now.

    I haven't done an official count but it looks like about 6 jellies, 1-stillborn and 21? healthy little scrubs.
    Rita' doing fine. Still having some contraction but I think it's just maintenance after giving birth.

    Here's the only stillborn, a female. When she came out I saw a lot of the yoke still in the egg and knew there was a problem.
    From the looks of the second photo I would surmise there was some kind of internal problem with the baby.
    Probably been dead for awhile as I also see some decay in the lower intestinal area. Poor little scrub.

    From its location I'm guessing it might have been a kidney problem.
    The green is probably Gangrene.

    I jus did a final count on the live scrubs. 25
