On average 8-10. Sometimes only a couple, sometimes 16+. My girl had just 1 last year. My advice would be get prepared enough for a huge litter before pairing them up.

x2 what fatal said,its hard to say how many babies they will have,thsts if you can get babies in the first place,but always best to be prepared as they can suprise you with big litters
