Emergancy!:: Kaylie About To Give Birth...

[libertine]

I'm giving two to my best friend, and the rest I will either sell or keep some.

That's true.

Here are some links that will be of use to you Libertine - not only for the care of the babies but in case you decide to breed again (it's not an anti-breeding site, it's pratical and responsible advice):

Libertine how are the babbies doing ??

Hope the babies are doing well and look forward to pics as they get older

I personally think that this Topic should be split Leave Libertine's post here and the debate about breeding put in a seperate Topic

The babies are great, I can already tell all are hooded and most likely black, buff, or brown. Some are obviously rex due to their curly little whiskers. The dad was rex so I'm glad some will turn out like him...
I had to switch cages though because my room was getting too hot, (it's around 97-99 F outside) and even with the fan the cage was too hot. So I put the happy family in a wire cage instead of an aquarium.

Kaylie(mum) is eating and drinking fine, she gets fresh strawberries, apple, cucumber, turkey formula, turkey slices, and scrambled eggs. Along with a bit of honey in her water to encourage her to drink more

How am I doing so far?
