Baby Northerns
Tiliqua s. intermedia. This should be interesting. There will be lots of pictures so please if you can hold your comments until I get the last one up. I'll say after my last picture that I am done. I hope to make it worth your while.
Yesterday I told my wife that I thought Pumpkin would probably go into labor tomorrow probably around 12:00 noon. So this morning early I eased her outside to get a final picture before that she deflated. I was rite for once. This was around 8:00 am. By noon she gave birth to the first of twelve healthy, beautiful babies. Took her until 4:30 pm to finish up. Could be that I was messing around to much with the camera and caused her to take so long. Minnie Lee another northern only took around a hour and a halve the other day and she had eleven. Pumpkins babies came out fully charged, busted through the membranes and in seconds had their placentas eaten and were running around trying to eat the membrane and placentas of their mates. I would actually have to pull the already born ones away from the newly dropped ones. Went ahead and separated a couple that was going to eat everybody. Decided to try and feed them as they finished up their afterbirth. They ate like little pigs immediately. The babies look great so I am happy once again.
