    Re: Taming the beast

    Don't let that Steve scare you! He has thousands of squirmers around his place! Your snake may have in the area of around 20 or so. Maybe. My girl had 11, no jellys and no stillborns. Good luck if you do end up with squiggles!!!

    Let us see what that means.
    All kidding aside, you'll do great with whatever it turns out to be.

    Re: Taming the beast

    Not so bad, all those little faces! My Mom was a WC and we weren't sure she was gravid until as Steve said, we came home to a bunch of squiggles in the tank. It's such a great experience, though I did scare the heck out of my husband by calling him up and telling him he was a grandfather! He thought I meant our 20 year old daughter was expecting!!!

    Re: Taming the beast

    I agree. Any day now dannijean, or should I say "mom" Don't be nervous. Just take care of the momma snake like you would any other. When the day comes, you have us to advise you. You'll love the experience, trust me.

    There are certain preparations to make as the day approaches. Anyone else with experience want to chime in? I don't want to risk sounding like a broken record.
    From now on, I'll treat others like they treat me. Some will be glad, others should be scared
