No idea on the tail Kat, could have been anything. This won't be a hands on situation with her. The plan, (depending what is delievered) is to release her and the young back to the wild. My main reasons for bringing her in is to use a WC snakes gravid situation as a learnning curve to see if this is even anything I want to mess with in the future. If it turns out to be an experience I want to repeat with snakes I acquire in the future then so be it, if I discover it is a little more than what I wish to be a part of then I'll know maybe to base my future acquistions on keeping things same sex around here. I plan to do everything and then some to make her time with us a positive thing. Where for her everything is as favorable to be safe healthy and secure as she prepares to have the litter, and recover after. For the baby snakes a safe place to put some time under them so maybe the big bad world won't be as big and bad. Ultimately it is an event to event decision making process where the outcome of one will dictate what happens next.
