Next year I should have at least three more females ready to breed, so maybe four clutches next year if all goes well... I'm thinking of holding back most or all of the females to get my breeding program off of the ground. Are you planning on holding some of these back or selling them? I'm sure once you really get going it's a tough decision every year, I would want to keep them all!
What a coincidence, my gravid girl also shed last night. Looks like I might be getting a visit from the Easter bunny XD
Re: Breeding season 2016 in progress...
I've managed to keep only 2 snakes from last year.
The Cinning Queen male and a Super Enchi Lesser pos. Blaze female. That SEL girl had like 21 gramms when she crawled out. Right now she's at about 180 gramm. But as you may red erlier, i've had a pretty bad year besides those 2 examples. Even had a clutch, where out of 7 babys that initially crawled out, only 1 made it past 3 month. pretty frustrating. but every bad year mostly is followed by one good.
Good luck with your breeding plans :-)
