Re: gravid question

Well, my eastern had babies while I was gone. Due to low humidity most of them died from what I heard from my parents, all before getting out of their birth sacs. T.T
There were also 3 that ended up with deformed bottom halves. I had to put these down myself.
But I did get 3 healthy babies who have survived a lot already...
Anyways, I'm sorry Kev.
I can only begin to think about why this breeding season was a little off.
Oddly, most of my snakes who were caught/bought gravid gave birth to perfectly healthy litters.
Maybe it's not the females, but the males causing the problems... Shooting too many blanks as Reed says.
