    Fine young cannibals

    This morning, at about 9 AM...















    Mating occurred 73 days ago, didn't expect them for at least another 2 weeks. The results: 6 healthy babies, 1-2 slugs, 0 stillborn, 0 deformed.

    Lengths:
    20.6 cm
    25.5 cm
    23.1 cm
    23.6 cm
    24.5 cm
    24.4 cm

    Average length: 23.6 cm. Unfortunately, I didn't have my scale with me.

    And here's the footage I got. I managed to catch the birth of the last baby.

    They are not just snakes. They're garter snakes.
