She is way to small. I hope she doesnt take on this coupling.

Yeah, she is too small. I would seperate her even though she may very well have sperm inside of her. Definetly keep trying to feed her. 1200 grams is the very minimal to breed. Most people recommend atleast 1500grams of weight for females to breed succesfully.

What are you smoking? I hope that female doesnt lay eggs. If im not mistaken , you will get no eggs ,a dead snake, or a sick female and slugs. Next time check out some breeding recepies and size charts.;) :sunny:

Re: Check this out
Can breeding a small snake really hurt the female??
I always thought that the rationale behind a minimum weight was to keep the smaller females eating/gaining to make them better breeders the next season and maximize the male's potential (with bigger girls)...
No-one is stopping the small girls in Africa...:confused:

Re: Check this out
Small snakes can get egg bound, produce very small clutches and then later not produce for several years after the initial breeding. It is very unwise to breed that small.

Re: Check this out
Just by looking at that picture I can tell you she is WAY WAY to small to be breeding! You are putting your female snake up to a bunch of risk that can include death if she does take.
