She was with both males and females in captivity at the reptile rescue while they had her before they were to be released, and I got her July 30th. I dont know how long the rescue had them. He said they have more people that want them removed than they have people that want them released.

Apparently these snakes have a reputation for having a bad attitude in this area so I wonder how hard finding homes for up to 18 babies would be. My boyfriend is not thrilled about the ball breeding that I am hoping for, he will be happy to hear you dont think she will lay.

I read about feeling for eggs but i was unsure how easily the eggs are damaged if they are in there, I will try it.

And thanks for the link Bigtattoo I appreciate the info.
