Concinnus in labor

[Spankenstyne]

The waiting is the worst part, I feel for ya. Sort of that whole "a watched pot never boils", well a watched reptile never births lol.

I have a Northern Blue Tongue skink that dropped a slug over a week & a half ago, then another a few days later and then just yesterday dropped another. She looked like she was in labour about 2 days ago now but still nothing. Of course every spare moment I'm down here analyzing her every breath and move. Twice now I was sure I was about to see a baby being born with the tail up and puuuuushing and...... "Oh a poop.."..

I'm heading out of town on business next week and fully expect it to happen while the wife is overwhelemed with everything else lol..

Yeah, well I guess I should have waited to announce anything but sometimes it only takes a couple of hours. But, like the last time I had a concinnus litter, these two girls are dragging it out for a few days.

Everything has shifted and there's a lot of squirming/pushing, etc. so it can't possibly be much longer. On a positive note, if she waits 'til sat or sun, I'll be here to shoot video.

Just for saying that, watch her have them while I'm at work today.

lol hopefully one of them pops on saturday because then the scrubs and me will have the same birthday!

The smallest female 3 stripe concinnus I have, had a litter of 14 healthy babies overnight. I missed the whole thing. No slugs, no stills, no kinks or deformities, just perfect babies.

I don't know what's going on with the girl who prompted this thread. She still hasn't had any babies.

That is awesome about the new Mom! Your report, however, is incomplete. WE NEED PICTURES!

Hope the other one has a good litter here soon too!

[ConcinusMan]

Well they're not all finished shedding yet. I'll give them some time and take pics later today.
