came home today to find twenty healthy baby checkereds in the viv, to say they were unexpected would be a massive understatement, although i put together the mother and another female [an albino] with my three checkered males, one old fellow who has reached double numbers in age, and a duo of whippersnapper brothers not yet two, i thought i had not had any luck, little did i knowthe only down side was finding three full term dead who may well have had a chance if i would have had a suitable damp birthing box in place.
the other fact which wrong footed me was the refusal to eat by the two females over the last couple of months how she had all those healthy little snakes on the minuscule amount of food she has eaten is beyond me but even as i type this she is tucking in appetite returned

Re: whats that moving ?
As they say on some of the more questionable forums on this wide world of interwebs, "Pics, or it didn't happen!"
(and no, I do not make a habit of frequenting questionable forums).People assume that time is a strict progression of cause to effect, but actually, from a non-linear, non-subjective viewpoint, it's more like a big ball of wibbly-wobbly timey-wimey stuff.

Re: whats that moving ?
no albino's i'm afraid steve as it was the other female [the non albino] who had the scrubs, but the good news is that my son Christopher has bought a good camera so when we figure out just how to post photo's i will get it done, i have kept the instructions you sent me some time ago and will use them, Christopher is not home from work yet and will be so pleased when he see's the new arrival's
he now has two tortoises one red foot one yellow foot and spends a lot of time in the reptile room and is getting more interested in my creatures each day, so perhaps my prayers have been answered and at least one of my six kids will pick up the torch
pics soon i hope

Congratulations! Looking forward to the pics
TamiOh. Because you know, it seems to me that, aside
from being a little mentally ill, she's pretty normal.
