So I was checking on the outdoor pen, giving them a little mist of water when I noticed a squiggle.
After a few minutes of searching I pulled out +/- 10 baby snakes!
The mother was the red sided I purchased a few months ago; she looked kinda puffy, and the guy who sold her to me obviously hadn't had her for a long time (probably a WC seeing as she was gravid.)
So now I have what I believe to be pure red sided babies. I'll be getting pics up soon to be sure that everyone agrees; there have been no boys in the pen for 2 months, and even when they were there it was for 3 minutes until I noticed some of the easterns making attempts at the ribbon. lol

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

Re: Unexpected babies
End of your day will be early morning for me.
I hope I can learn something for my project.
The pit is still floated. It´s raining again and again.
