Shedding time

The albino babies are now 2 weeks old, and doing well.
One of them shed today, and the other two look like they'll shed in the next day or two.
The one that shed looks awesome. It has nice clean stripes just like it's mother.

2009 babies

Being born early has been rough on this first litter.
Three of six didn't make it. The remaining three seem strong, but only time will tell.
Although I do have hope for these guys, I honestly am really just hoping that the second 09 litter has more time to develop so they can come out more robust.
These guys are pretty cool though.

6 Newborn additions

I had a litter of rosys born last night.
There were six in all, and they're all WW albino and 50% possible het for borrego anery.

They were born a little early, and two of them are still absorbing yolk from their sacks so I have them in a separate container on a damp towel to keep it from drying up.

The other four seem to be doing well. I shot a few crappy pictures with my cell phone.
One of the four slipped under the blue cover before I could take the pics, so you only get to see three. I will take some better pics with a better camera and post them soon.




Now I patiently wait for the next litter to be born. My het female is HUGE. She's significantly bigger than the albino girl that just gave birth. We'll see how it goes.
