I have 2.1, a w/c pair and a subadult captive hatched male.



I have witnessed a few matings in the past few weeks but am not too confident of anything coming from it. I have been trying to get some weight on the male and have done nothing in the way of cycling.



There does seem to be a shortage of males for some reason. I made a trip to an importer in Paris (France) to obtain an adult male. The male had died before I got there but he had around two hundred c/f?? hatchlings, there were only four males amongs them!! I had three of them but lost two within a fortnight (that's two weeks, one of our Brit terms).



I did have 1.2 c/b adults as well but they were very old, 16 years and died from natural causes.



Not sure why this should be. I was fortunate to obtain male from another importer, he had ordered several T. jacksonii, he obtained 1 T. jacksonii some Philothamnus 2 Green "Thrasops" possibly aethiopisa and a few Boomers..... Luckily for me the jacksonii was male. has taken a cople of years for it to settle in, possibly why I am now seeing mating activity.



Will post details if anything happens.



Cheers Mark
