We're renewing our contract Ken, so the females will stay with Eugene for this coming season to try again. Actually it wasn't Eugene's male that didn't do the job. He was quite interested and did breed the year before so knew what it was all about LOL. Neither of our virgin females however were overly interested.

Due to a number of factors we weren't able to get our females to Eugene until extremely late in the season and things just didn't work out. Neither Mike and I or Eugene wanted to stress the snakes by constantly pushing for breeding so made the decision to just let them settle in and try this coming season instead. The females had just reached a nice breeding size so the extra time certainly won't hurt either. Since we've moved so much closer we'll be able to visit our females regularily now and although we miss them, we appreciate the chance to share some clutches with Euguene's gorgeous male morphs.

As far as big Miss B the Brat, believe it or not Eugene's 5 year old son regularily handles her when Gene is cleaning. Who would have thought that highly aggressive female would have ever come this far. We hoped she'd calm down enough to just safely do her husbandry, never in our wildest dreams did we think she'd be safe for a kid to hold! She had started to calm down before the move to Gene's house. I was worried the change would cause a backslide but she's just continued going ahead in her progression to a nice calm big female. By all reports though she still retains her killer feeding response...Ms B likes her rats LOL Lovely Ms Orlah is just herself. For whatever her life was before us, she's a big darling and a dream snake to handle.
