Oh yeah. He's a reliable breeder. Not sure what I'd do without him. Speaking of which:
The Mojave girl locked with him again few days ago, and now she's glowing.
It may be hard to tell because of the lighting, but the color change is really amazing. She's usually very dark, but now she looks like a Mojave Goldblush all of a sudden.
And I was right when I said this girl was about to ovulate:
She's definitely doing it now! So huge...
In other news, I think my Yellowbelly het Pied may actually be female. I put my Enchi Pied in the same cage with the Yellowbelly and this girl awhile back, and he locked with the Yellowbelly instead of her. At first I thought it might be a fluke, since there was a female in the cage. So I tried with just the two "males" and they locked again.
So either the Yellowbelly het Pied is female, or he's gay. Guess I won't know unless I get eggs. "He" probed male, but I've never seen hemipenes and he's never locked with a female. I've heard that in some cases people can damage a female's scent glands by probing too deep, and that can cause them to probe as male from then on. I bought this snake from a guy who was new to BPs and struggling with their husbandry, so I wonder if that's what happened.
