Breeding Kenyan Sand Boas

Shakota Dec 13, 2006 07:18 PM

Hey this is the first year I am breeding my kenyans. What temps should they cool at and for how long? When I warm them back up do I feed them immediately or put them together first? Approx. how many babies do they usually have? She is 250 grams and a proven breeder. Thanks, Sarah

Let them get cool at night, down into the 70's throughout the winter period from Dec to Feb. Temps can come back up into the 80s during the day.. They should be fed less during this time.
In the spring... bring them back up to the usual higher temps.
With this regimen, they will breed late spring into the summer with babies coming in fall.
Typical litters from first time Mom's of 3 years of age are around a dozen
