    Is This A Lock Up?????
    I put my pinstripe male in this big normal females tub since I was cleaning his and after I cleaned his tub I forgot about putting him back... I came back and was surprised to see them like this! Is this a lock up?????? Please let me know. Obviously he isn't inside her but were they or are they going to???? Would you call this a possible lock up?

    Also the red under his vent was bruising... I bought this collection of a guy and he had tried to pop all these big adults unsuccessfully... it sucks i know but would that affect their breeding? Please let me know also! Thanks!

    Hopefully the previous owner didn't cause irreparable damage. Your fella there is cozying up, putting the moves on her, not an actual lock....yet :)

    Im confused why you just put him in her tub when you were cleaning?
    You mean you wernt doing this because you intentially wanted to breed them?
    I guess i would never put snakes together unless wanting to breed. Things can go wrong and mixing snakes isnt something to just do for the fun of it. :confuzd: I could have just read this wrong though...

    no room, her tub is right about his, shes 2000 grams so its not like she's under size. didn't want him in a dirty tub.

    You could put him in a box, a pillowcase, have a sibling hold him while you clean etc.
    Putting a snake in with another snake while you clean is just not a good idea. (unless intending to breed).
    IMO

    Doesn't look like a lock in the pic, but it looks very promissing to become a lock!
