MALE you have that is a PROVEN BREEDER???

I think now that we are moving into the age of the dwarfs, we will see new and exciting things out there, inccluding new practices and behavior we may have thought to be non-existant or even dangerous.

I know Gus has successfully bred female Mexican Boas at about the 3' range...

This season I have several male Central American Boas that are COURTING/BREEDING HEAVILY at 30", 24", even less!!!


What's your take on this?


I have female centrals that are 2' or so, but 2 years +...
They are sexually mature...
Do you think they will produce a healthy/viable litter?


Would love to hear your stories.. both successes and failures... you don't learn much from success... you learn from failure.


This little male is all of 2' long and he's been courting this 5'+ Leopard gal for 2-3 weeks now! More agressive than almost any other snake in the house!




Here's a pair of Boas that are 2 1/2 years old and LESS than 2 feet long... what to do... lol
(for you conservative folks, NOTHING would be stopping them from breeding in nature right now!)
