Here’s a link to a YouTube video that features Carl Barden from Reptile Discovery Center in DeLand with a gorgeous leucistic water moccasin that was captive produced from a virgin captive produced snake. Definitely parthenogenesis produced this amazing snake. Doesn’t mean it is something that typically occurs in captivity or anywhere else, in fact it is extremely rare and noteworthy if you hear of it anywhere anytime. It’s exceptionally rare. I do think it is pretty uncool to bring this up with Burmese pythons when we are trying to combat the hysteria and misinformation out there, somebody has a definite agenda doing that on here.

If this link doesn’t work, just search YouTube for “Cotton Mouth Snakes and Snake Venom on Reptiles TV”.
