Hi,
Beautiful braminus! These really are an amazing species, and I really like your photo of them. Just today, I noted several eggs beneath the substrate, suggesting that the same line of snakes can either lay eggs or give live birth, as had been asked previously. About the black light... where did you get it? What kind of black light did you use? Many of the lights marketed today as "black lights" actually do not contain the right frequency needed to view the pattern of these snakes... many are simply painted on the inside, or use a different frequency. This would be the type of black light seen outdoors at night. The same goes for the Western and Texas blindsnakes of North America. I intend to allow the termite conlony to continue reproducing inside this habitat, providing an "infinate" supply of food for the snakes. Nonetheless... great photos, and keep up the good work!
