Dragon has been off food for about a week, and for the last two days has been extremely restless. Today when I cleaned out her tank, I put some warm, damp cloth into her hide and a few extra loose paper towels (her fav. thing to hide under). Couldn't have been ten minutes later, I had washed up and was making lunch. I glanced over at the cage and she was giving birth! My daughter and I watched the whole process. She was amazedDragon gave birth to 14 active, healthy looking little ones. They have all shed and are doing great. Not one single slug or stillborn so far, though Dragon dose appear to possibly have one more to go. She is resting quietly at the moment in a separate cage. I took lots of photos but I will probably not have time to upload them until tomorrow afternoon. What an exciting day!

Re: Dragon gave birth today.
Congrats. Be sure the little scrubs get their first shed done. A lukewarm water bath for an hour or so usually gets the job done.
