i dont have 90 days to wait around i kinda need to get him in there if i can they both came from the same place and im pretty sure he dont have anything thing so sould i risk it? i mean i love my babies who dont if i have to waitfor there health i will but id rather not
i dont wanna put my male in with the female if shes gonna whipe his azz or somthing i mean shes mean to me and hes sweet but what should i do put him in? or take her out and put them both in somthing els for a while or what
He might be a pastel. Do you have any pics of his head? Also what did you pay for him. Is there any way for you to weigh him? About breeding weights, I havent bred a male under 800g. Im not saying you shouldnt do it or it cant be done. I just havent tried. They can stop eating during breeding. If he is to small and he stops eating it could kill him. If hes to small and the female is much bigger then that can stress him out. Breeding can be alot of stress on the animals. Also what is the size of your female is she big enough and old enough. For me I wont breed a female under 2000g and 2 years of age. A male under 800. I would do the qt even if they came from the same place you never know. Also you need to give him time to settle in and all that. Time for him to get use to his new home.
Whats the hurry to get them breeding? Its better to have him healthy and settled in. Than to rush him and have him end up die. Or having something and passing it onto your female and you end up loosing both of them. There should be no reason to rush them.
when u say that u mean dont even let them in the same room? cuz there in the same room and hes small im not gonna try it i put em both in same cage and ym female could eat him 10x times over lol so il wait till next year i hope we dun have anything cuz they lived n same room and they have been in same tank befor who knows.
ya i paid 50 for him and there no way to tell his weight i wanna get somthing tho got any ideas? where i can get one?
Just from the picture of him in your hand. To me I would say its a bit small to try to breed. Alot of people on here will tell you he is big enough. Some people have bred males smaller than that or about that size. It has worked for some and not for others. Its really up to you I wouldnt breed him others might. It all comes down to what you want to do. Everything might be ok then it might not be. I bought one of these scales http://www.reptilebasics.com/My-Weig...l-p-16191.html
It has worked great for me. Also the guy shipped it out fast great place to buy from. I will buy from them again.
so if he does have somthing how long befor he kills my snake and how do i kno if he has anything hes 6 months old how the heck can he have somthing but ya neva kno i guess =/
He might not have anything. You can always take him to a vet and have him checked out. The Qt is just to be safe. Just in case he does have something its better to keep him away from your other snakes. So they dont get it to. Ive never had a snake that I put in Qt that has ended up being sick. Its just to be safe. Since you got him from a petshop its a good thing to do. Where he came from, how the breeders that hatched him kept there animals. You never know someone could have came in the shop they have snakes, they have mites or something. They ask to check out the snake they pass it onto him. Yeah 50 sounds like a good price.
i understandwhere you guys are coming from the thing is its lil to late they have been in same tank and i mean he dont have alot of yellow in him but hes the coolest snake i have ever owned sweet boy just likes to chill ya kno? so he was worth it to me i just kinda want some babies i guess i have to wait till next year whats the latest i can breed? or can i breed all year if i cool the tank down some how.
