    omg I think they are locked!!!!!
    Man I am soo happy right now I know its forbidden to not post pics but im scared of bugging them. I put my normal male in with one of my normal females. I was hoping for my pastel to go but hes not very interested in girls yet. lol. I really hope she takes. Well even if she doesn't I have plenty of time. Man I am soo excited I can't even find the words to describe it right now maybe when I take some pics I will be calmer. lol. Just thought you guys might wanna here my success story.

    only thing I am bummed out about is that none of my morphs are big enough yet. I thought my pastel may have been interested but he has been in for several day and no luck. I took him out and threw in my normal for the heck of it and right away he started acting funny licking everything including her lol. Kinky.

    I'm in the same boat. Both my pastel and spider are still too small (around 400-450g) and only my 100% het pied male is big enough. He went right to work, so crossing my fingers.

    Good luck with your pair. This is so exciting. Keep us updated.

    They are both really nice looking snakes, congrats on the lock.

    I think I did a hopping on the spot, then ran around the corner to do a silent scream when I caught my first lock.

    It is still REALLY early. The pastel may be good to go yet. If that was the first date then don't give up. I had one male that didn't breed till he'd been introduced at least ten times.

    Very cool stuff. :)

    what do you mean nothing too fancy?!? they both are nice reduced normals, and there is nothing unfancy about normals, with their high variability. congrats on your first lock and here's to many gorgeous babies. :D

    Re: omg I think they are locked!!!!!
    Got a quick question for you experienced breeders out there. I know on Markus Jayne has his breeding plan written out to a T but when it comes to giving them a break just hypothetically speaking say they stay locked for a long time like Umm.... several days. How would I separate them. I only ask because they havent moved since last night. I know several days is unlikely, but (STUPID QUESTION ALERT) I should just wait for him to finish then separate them. Or is there a point where enough is enough. Just some newb breeder jitters lol.

    Not too sure depends. I May keep one girl (if I have any). Got a couple ppl that I promised one too a while back. Depending on the size of the clutch I may sell the rest need to find a decent place locally to sell them too.

    Yeah I figured as much but just like to figure out what I should do in those hypothetical situations.
