1987 M. Stanback M. [illegible] Formicivorus Dark Hollow HNHR (3 June) I got the snake out. Anyway, snake measurements: Head to Vent: 105.6 cm, Total length: 130.8 L.Blue /902-43179 TC = 19.9 TN = 13.9 Brown-Oran/Orange-L.Blue 10sh 23.3 1° = 57.4 TS = 16.2 Tail = 35.3 BW = 7.5 B.Pink-L.Pink / Black-B.Pink TC = 18.9 TN = 12.8 Yellow /902-43180 1°sh = 15.8 1° = 44.2 TS = 10 T = 26 BW = 6.5 4 June 0830 Climbed nest. Yes, a dead baby (bugs all in it) 902-43181: wt 74, chor 94, 1°s 24.9, 1°66.3 TC 21.85 TN = 15.2 BW = 7 TS = 15.3 T = 44.4 [sketch of ventral view of kidneys with labels: "red (kidney)", "midline of body", and a scale bar labeled "= 2cm"] white light coloured "globs" (2 seen) Are the 2 above "globs" early testes? 6 June Dissected other 2 kids PP/180 had sorta a glob in the middle (fuzzy edges - not distinct). I started tearing at it and it turned into 2 globs - larger + closer together than those seen in 181. 179 was like 181. Can I assume that 179 + 181 are ♂ and 180 is ♀? 19 June 1420 Acorn Count: 0
