There is no one answer to this. It depends on how far along the female is. Can you feel any lumps in her belly when you run your finger along the legth of her abdomen? You may also want to let them mate several times before she lays. This will insure the most fertility. Post a pic of the snakes if you can. I'd love to see the WC Blacks. What area are they from?

Disclaimer: I do keep several snakes in pairs, and some in groups. However I realize that things can go wrong, and I have to keep a close eye on those groups, to be sure they are not being adversely affected by these living conditions. Also if one happens to eat it's cagemate, it is 100% my fault, and I know the risks in advance!

What's wrong with using CAUTION?!?!?!
King Snakes! Who can make a better mouse trap?
