The other babies were already a few months old before they were shipped to Steve, but the "lone survivor" was born on the ranch. The only one he has that was born there.

A while back there was an isolated island of habitat here in town (an abandoned airport surrounded by urban development) supporting a small population of snakes, that was about to be destroyed by a bulldozer so I caught all I could (7 I believe) and sent them to the ranch. Apparently, one of them was gravid.

Got there just in time too. Days later, it was all gone. Now it's residential streets, parking lots, and commercial buildings.
