Re: Breeding Questions???

One of the easiest snakes to breed are cornsnakes. They will often breed even without a cooling off period.
Boas have live birth so you would'nt need an incubator, just a lot of space to house a couple of big snakes(and a lot of little ones till you can place them).
You can build your own incubator or get one (chicken brooder) at a farm supply store.
Keep in mind that even a pet store may be unable (or unwilling) to take 20-30 baby snakes off your hands at one time so you will need to be able to house and feed them.

Re: Breeding Questions???

i was thinking about it and it may just be a one time thing. i don't know. i want to try it out and see what happens. i might love it or I might hate it. you never know till you try. and if that is the case where I can't get rid of any i'm sure that there are people who would like to adopt one or 2.
