Ovulation and Gravid Females in Radiographs - Egg Counts and Surprises

That is REALLY cool, thanks for sharing!

This is really cool! What affect do you think the x-rays will have on the eggs? Aren't pregnant women not supposed to have x-rays?

Regardless...really cool! Nice to have a sort-of visual with what I'm feeling in my girls.

That is awesome. Thanks for sharing!

I was wondering the same thing. Nonetheless very cool.

I have heard negative effects from x-rays to gravid or pregnant snakes. I am not sure if a radiograph is the same or not, but I do know from my herp vet that x-rays will cause deformities or full-term death in babies. Very cool to see the pics, and again I am ignorant to how radiographs work. I hope my assumption is wrong.
