Stefan's garters

[Stefan-A]

Well, since Greg is doing it, I might as well do it, too
Anybody want to guess how long the pregnancy will be (in days, mating occurred on day 1) and how big the clutch (total live + stillborn + slugs + deformed) will be?

Well, things tend to be too exciting the first time.

For whom? The snakes or the owner of the snakes?

Oh boy I can't wait. Snakey porn!

That's Snake pornographic material 2U

We could make it "right" and call it National pornogra... I mean, "National Geographic" or "Discovery Channel" material.

You're kidding, right? # of fertilized eggs, temperature, [insert other factors here] oh wait. You did say "guess". That's all it is. You know, it just occurred to me. I never had a single slug with any garters over 20 years. A few stillborns and a few deformed (kinked) others that died shortly after birth, but no slugs. All yolks were attached to a formed neonate, dead or alive.

What does the context suggest?

[gregmonsta]

I'm going to say day 78 .... 13 (lucky for some) healthy squiggles

[guidofatherof5]

93 days and 19 scrubs

[ConcinusMan]

Just thought I would offer another suggestion.

[ConcinusMan]

As many slugs (and garters) as there are around here, I could never get a garter to eat a slug. Well, one time an ordinoides tried it. It ended in disaster. I thought she was going to suffocate on the slime and it took days before her "lips" would close properly.

[Snaky]

I will be guessing 94 and 15

[Stefan-A]

First one to congratulate me, gets banned. Maybe.

Well, the pregnancy lasted somewhere between 73 and 76 days. Who wants to guess what exactly I got out of the whole deal?

[gregmonsta]

Oh bugger, did you get slugged? .... The worlds largest garter poo (in which case I could congratulate).
