    Update On the WC Litter

    They are all eating like little piggies! I ended up keeping 14, the kinked baby didn't make it though. I love them all, they are so cute and almost what I'd call social, for a snake. I'm used to keeping Boids which hide all day. These little guys come out of hiding when I open their tub (for food, of course, but shhhhh).

    Anyway, I just thought I'd post new pictures of the little hogs! They haven't shed yet and as soon as they do, I'll separate them and give them names. I hate naming babies and then losing them. It always gets me too attached.

    They are all so different. Five of them are holding the Blue/Green and two have developed really bright orange on their sides. There are also two that are pink tinged. I can't wait for them to shed, I'm hoping they hold some of those colors.

    Here they are! Thanks for looking!

    Thank you so much!

    I have around 40 Boids and 25 or so Colubrids. As far as boids I have a Green Tree Python (Jayapura), Emerald Tree Boa, Carpet Python Cross, Hog Island Boa, Lots of Amazon Tree Boas, and even more Ball Pythons.

    Named or not, you're attached.
    The babies possess even more power over us.
    Their magic works quicker and the addiction is deeper.
    It's a good thing though.

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

    You are so very correct. It's hard to admit, but you are. I cried all night after I found Kinky dead. I've raised many litters/clutches, it never gets easier to lose one.

    The attachment is great, I smile every I walk over to check on them. All 13 little heads pop up and some even slither towards the lip of the tub (for food), but I can lie to myself and say it's just because they are happy to see me.

    You go ahead and lie to yourself. I believe it's not a complete lie. Just my personal opinion plus some of mine have told me it's more than just food.
