    over protective mother.

    i want to start breeding my pretty little skyler and my ziggy but they both need a bit more weight to go theyare still way too small but just wondering say when they breed and so on after the eggs are layed when i am going to take the eggs away and put them into the incubater would this stress out the snake or would she possible snap at me. just one of those strange thoughts that popped into my head. lol has anyone had a problem with removing eggs from a mother snake. another question is would a mother recognize her babies as her own (after they've hatched)

    It was there a year ago

    Mark presents a lot of good info there.

    Also check out Joe Compel's website. Joe has put together some excellent articles!

    Re: over protective mother.

    Also, to state it shortly...
    Removing the eggs allows the mother to begin eating again, so it avoids stress, but yeah, she is liable to strike at you when you take them away. Those sites both ROCK.
