On the morning of Monday, October 13, Living Gems had its second litter of 2014. First-time Mom Nephrite delivered her litter in her water bowl early in the day. (Dad Franklin was on vacation.)

The first round of photos, hurriedly snapped before I dashed off to work:

The enclosure’s left side, just after the babies were discovered:



The enclosure’s right side, moments later:



And the waterbowl and right corner, apparently the “in” place to hang out:



When I got home from work, I was able to grab some additional photos:

Everyone make a break for it!:



Mom, we’re going out to play:



This little one thought Mom made a great train ride:



And, hidden away in this litter of attractive little normals, I came across this girl:



Note the slightly thicker black borders than normal on her dorsals.

Right after that, I came across her sister:



Those are some of the thickest borders I have seen on a Brazilian. Also note her side ocelli, which look more like small bars then the usual dots, and have few/subdued crescents.

It will be interesting to see how both girls develop.

The total litter count was 15 babies -- seven boys and eight girls -- with an average weight of 29 grams.

Thank you, as always, for reading.
