The pairing produced 20 babies in total. They range from 30 grams to 27 grams, with an average of 29. There were no stills, slugs, or birth defects (so far as we can tell).

More details will be forthcoming.

Thank you Tyronen, Bushviper, and Jason&Sam! Mom did a great job bringing them to a full and healthy term. She's getting a much-needed quiet spell now!
