    BABIES!!! ^o^

    Kay, so I woke up this morning and lumbered over to the garter maternity ward... Nothing...
    I look to my left, my contacts not in, and see a squiggle in the dekay's tank.
    My girl popped!
    She had 10 babies over all; 2 were still born. When I picked one of them up, I decided to "un do" it just in case. Next thing I know it's crawling around and wiggling! I even saw it take it's first breath! The other stillborn was too far gone unfortunately. D:
    However, all the babies look healthy and kinda plump; one of them looks like a mini clone of his ma!

    An attempt at a good picture of "Mini-she."

    Aww, they wuv eachother.

    They're on half a sterilite container of damp carefresh with wet paper towel beneath. I offered food to a few of them, they showed a lot of interest, but I don't think they've quite figured out how to open their mouths to tell the truth. lol

    Actually Storeria, but both genuses are adorable.
    I'm going to be feeding them cut bits of live worms. ^^

    Oh. Because you know, it seems to me that, aside
    from being a little mentally ill, she's pretty normal.

    Way to go Kyle. We had a little "Stillborn" last season, peeled off the membrane with a toothpick and presto!

    Go out tonight and track down some little tiny slugs, I'm telling you they will start right in on them.

    We have a gal here ready to explode at any moment

    Good idea with the carefresh, just don't keep it TOO damp. After the first shed, they don't need a lot of humidity.

    Good luck with them babies Kyle...
