Very nice, i had 6 females give birth 2 days apart so im around 55 babies give or take a few hard to count a bunch of little buggers with mommy just waiting to bite me. haha

i got that alot i think at one time all 75 females i had popped in the same week. that really stinks since at that time most of my snakes were the same size

Sounds like your freezer was pretty full then!

[nixer]

yes it was but whats even worse is then you dont get babies for awhile like that and some of mine would only take live

I just had another one give birth the other night, 14 but I culled one so she has 13, her 2 sisters are due any time also!

Not bad at all. I would keep those gals (and stud) around. And maybe hold bac a few babies.

Watch that those little ones get enough milk - when you have mixed ages like that, the smaller ones don't get enough milk from the older ones bullying them off the mom. Learned that the hard way.

True, I pull all of my prego females and give them their own tub. I put them back into circulation after they wean their babies.

I've had 3 more litters since I originally posted. All of 12. Still have two more pregnant females that are going to pop soon. And it looks like one of the moms might be pregnant again. I've only lost 4 babies from not nursing. And one I found that looks like one of the moms tasted it a bit (below the ribs was missing).

Yeah I just had 2 first time breeders pop out 25 between them. One got suffocated though since one of the girls likes to pile all the babies up in one corner while the other one seems perfectly happy just to steal 2 or 3 and nurse them lol. Then two of my larger girls had two litters of 16-18 each (same tub had 35 babies crawlin in it lol. I love good rat months!
