I'm expecting... snake babies! (Ultrasound pics)
Something you don't see everyday :) I got to borrow my friend Alan Cole's ultrasound. He even came to help me learn how to use it. I figured this isn't a thread you see very often so people might appreciate some pics. Enjoy! Photos by Jerry Robertson (snakesRkewl)

It's amazing. You can see the shadows the ribs create and the gastrointestinal tract. It's crazy cool. Once you find the gall bladder you see the oviduct and follicles shortly after. It's amazing.

Awesome! We bought our first ultrasound machine this summer. It has been a great purchase so far and very helpful.

6 eggs on the Axanthic. That's what I palpated but I just wanted to see what it looked like to ultrasound a gravid female. It's a lot harder to tell than follicles. There's just s straight division line between eggs. It looks like the moms cram them in tighter than you would think. This Enchi bred my smoking POG. Hoping for lots of Pastel Enchi het Hypos :D Thanks for the compliment Don!

Oh man, my face just lit up. What a cool experience. I would encourage everyone to try it if they have the opportunity. It's really neat. Good luck on your Enchi Davy!
