Indeed! Congrats man! :)

Rick

Congrats on the lock! Lets hope that in no time you'll be talking about the big eggs that were just laid . . . then it's on to the first hatchling pipping. It doesn't get much better than this!

Thanks guys! I fed my male over the weekend and introduced him back to her last night... Hoping for more lock-ups...:)

I'm hoping! I don't want to hope too much incase she doesn't end up laying or she throws some duds... But I'm definetly excited! :)
It's a great experience none the less! Seeing some eggs and eventually a pipping hatchling would be so incredible... *Fingers crossed!* :rolleyes:

*** New update! ***


I had lowered the Temps last night in my apartment lowering the ambient room temp to 72-75 degrees (only for last night), I cut the heat lamp off and left the UTH on and also removed the Hidebox...(I've heard of some breeders leaving them in and some taking them out. I usually leave it in but I didn't want to disrupt them too much this morning checking them out...) anyways...


I came in and checked on them this morning and they were LOCKED!!! They were going at it like a... Ok I'm not going to go there but you get the picture! they were going at it! straight smashing...Ok I can't keep going on or I'm going to violate the T.O.S.

I tried to take a picture for a few minutes but this phone is garbage and the pictures wouldn't come out at all, the lighting was terrible and I was afraid that if I turned on the light that I would disrupt them or make them stop.

...ok well that was my update! I'm done now... Hoping for a big clutch!!!

I'm telling you man this is the coolest thing to experience... I can't wait to see what the future holds for this breeding. Either way I'm glad to be a part of it and glad to be able to share my experience here on bp.net with everybody else!

The way I see it regardless to what happens in this breeding next year is only going to be better. :rolleyes:

wahoo! another lock! congradulations. i'll be praying for a big clutch and healthy babies. :)

Hmm okay....breeding recipe...


1. Healthy snakes ready to breed
2. Adjust temps/lights/whatever
3. Put said snakes together
4. Pray!
5. See a lock....SCREAM and phone Adam
6. SCREAM in Adam's ear about how the snakes are doing "it" and they've been doing "it" for awhile (describe "it" in great detail, speaking very quickly whilst dancing about in your snake room, repeat details of said "it" in case Adam's missed the details the first time around)
7. Slam down phone, forgetting to say goodbye to Adam, call 6 other people
8. Phone Adam back, apologize for #7 and break into another detailed explanation of exactly whose tail is where
9. Peek repeated through sides of tub at mating snakes
10. Listen to your spouse/boss/roommate/parent explain that you have lost your mind and they are seriously considering divorce/firing you/moving out/calling the therapist AGAIN!

Oh man thanks! Appreciate the prayers! I'm thinking that she should lay a decent size clutch but the more important thing for me is healthy babies... I just can't wait t'ill I see those babies pipping out! ahH! lol...

I just read Cue's thread from start to finish earlier! I know it was an old thread but I'm going to post a link because I think it will excite everyone a little bit more!

I know this thread is a little older but I love pictures cue took. Great job Cue! and by the way I saw your post of your rack/setup and I must say again...Great job!

Good luck to everybody breeding this year!
