A piece of information you may like to know. From personal experience and other breeders Intel it is apparent that Dumeril's do not breed "well" until they are a little older than most other boids. First litter she dropped was like 8 babies, last one was 24 ( also the most she ever had ). Oddly always more every time. Sometimes biennially instead of yearly, they have not been bred in 7 years, the only time they ever where together was that time on April 15, 2007. They are "mine" and I do not care if they ever breed to be honest. I was just fortunate to acquire them and I paid 1500 for the pair. They are like 100 bucks these days. So I didn't get them as a "project", I just had to have them!!!
They are not too old to breed either, I have read they still readily reproduce even after 20 years of age. ----- Thanks,
