I won't forget you either Merlin!!
I've read that she could have between 1 and 35!!! babies, and although it'll probably be somewhere in the middle, I'll have to be prepared for anything. And I definitely can't keep them all! So I hope y'all aren't kidding.
I'm not sure how easy it is to ship herps internationally or if I have to take them as carry on and fly over myself; but one way or another Talyn and Q's future babies will get to good homes!
She goes to the vet to get her stitches out on the 9th, so I'll ask then when it might be safe to breed her.
Check out my post Night Rainbow to drool a bit more over Talyn! She was just illuminated tonight!

Aww they are looking just great together Andrea! A very handsome couple indeed
Talyn is bigger, but that's not such a problem - males don't need to be as big as females to breed, so I suggest you keep them separate for a few more months, feed him up a bit more and make sure Talyn's well again, and then have them make lots of babies, and swap one for one of ours next year, so we have another unrelated to breed with

Hi BlackJack,
Hey you have to fantastic Brazilian Rainbow Boa's there, best of luck in their relationship. A few months back I was looking at a couple of baby BRBs. They were beautiful snakes, almost bought one but they wanted too much for them. But in the future I see a Rainbow on the horrizon
Thanks for the pics...

And the advantage is you will KNOW what type of health background THAT snake comes from!

SOOOOoooooo right there, Merlin!
In fact, although the breeding plans are still quite a time off, I find myself feeling more and more picky about who might get the babies!!
I'm planning on starting my babies out "right": F/T rat pinkies from their first meal... no later conversions from live to F/K to F/T or conversions from mice to rats.
Unfortunately, most pet stores here feed live out of convenience, risking bites and internal parasites. And I think a lot of buyers feed live just for the thrill of watching "the kill" or just ignorance, thinking snakes only eat live.
I'm going to make up a care-sheet booklet to hand out with every baby too!
BIG plans.........

Andrea in all fairness to breeders, some babies have to be started out on live to get them to start feeding.
