More Rainbow Babies (Litter 2014-C, Ramses-Jasper)

On Tuesday, November 18, Living Gems welcomed its third and final litter of the year. The pairing between Ramses, an impressive hypo male with an impeccable lineage, and Jasper, a normal bullseye female, produced 13 large and active het hypo babies.

Three morning shots, just after discovering the slime pile:

And three evening shots, after everyone had dispersed and explored (and wore down Mom’s patience):

Lone Explorer


Mom “Hiding” From Her Kids


Babies Hiding From Everyone


The babies averaged 35 grams each, which is on the larger side.

One week later, Mom and babies are doing well.

Thank you, as always, for reading.

Man how many litters and how many little baby rainbows have you produced this year?

Aww, look at those little wiggleworms I can't wait for your hypo babies!

Mark, we have three litters this year totaling 41 babies. It's been a light year for us!

Thanks Jess -- us too! :-)
