Still a chance?

Well, after getting excited about my BRBs thinking that they were gravid awhile ago, nothing seemed to come of it. Perhaps she was just building follicles? I have no clue... but did come home on Easter Sunday to find another good sign!





Eve, the female is still in shed, but they were at least trying! Once she comes out of shed, I hope that I get some real dirty snake porn going on!!! Haha

PS, Wow, I've hardly been online lately... been busy! I'll try to get around more and post a few new pics! (Busy trying to get a North Dakota Herp Club started, www.ndherp.com )

They were between 3-4 years old a year ago when I got them. The male is around 5 feet and the female almost 6 feet (just a few inches short!)

I hope that she sheds soon so that they really start getting it on!

whoa!

I just checked on them again, and this guy just can't seem to leave his girl alone! He used to NEVER pay her any attention when I tried to introduce them, but now he's always harassing her!

They're beautiful Brent! You take great photos!
I'll be waiting for some post-shed action pics!!! It looks VERY promising to me. I don't want to get your hopes up too high... but at least, if it doesn't happen this season, they'll have had some practice for next season!!

cool. i'd love to see some pics of the female after she sheds. she's pretty while in shed though too. looks like she's in a piece of silk or something. they're beautiful.

Well, now I'm nearly certain that this girl is gravid, or at the very least ovulating! Only problem is that I don't know when to expect birth, as she's been iffy back and forth! No matter what though, she's HUGE NOW!!!
