>>I have 2 black kingsnakes that I recently caught in the wild, they have both successfully eaten since capture and have mated. They are now each in their own container. How long after mating takes place until the eggs are laid? Ive found some good info on temps and how long til hatch but haven't found anything telling how long from mating to eggs being laid. I have had several snakes through the years but have never tried to raise any so this is new for me.



This is what I have heard, 6 weeks is typical and has been for me. They can take as long as 2 months, but I don't think that is common. I had 2 Cal kings lay eggs after only 25 days this year.
