I used to breed more P. laticauda than I knew what to do with. They were laying 2 eggs every couple weeks and I was giving them away to anyone that would take them.

In my experience, you CANNOT keep the babies togehter in a small container unless they are about identical in size. The problem is not them trying to "eat" each other though, it's a problem of aggressive/territorial behavior. Although I've always found the more mature animals are fine in small groups, the juveniles are extremely aggressive toward each other. The larger ones will bully the smaller ones to death if you don't keep them apart.

BTW, I am currently looking for a new cb male to use for breeding. If anyone has any leads, please let me know who I should talk to.
