I don't keep them but I may start after seeing yours.
I keep a number of Pale milks and think I may be able to deal w/ the fussy eaters that I hear Scarlets can be.
Nice looking snake.

Nice pic Dell! I didn't think you got many good ones of that snake the other night. I can bring it over again if you want more shots of it. I'll post some pics of him later, too.

I remember you had a baby that you showed pics of. Are these 2 more? Wow! Do they all eat for you?

Yes, these are 2 new ones. The bigger one (female) ate a large f/t pinky the day I got her. The male hasnt eaten yet. Only had him 3 days, and have only trie once. The one you remember from before, also started eating the day I got her. So, to answer your question, 2 out of 3 are eating f/t mice.

Here's a couple shots of just a few I bred a while back..............I was very excited to see the "little guys" pipping the eggs. The most I've ever had in a clutch of Scarlets is five.........And yes, the little ones can sometimes be a real "pain" to get eating on their own!!.................Doug

Hi,

this female ones dropped 11 eggs. She usually double clutches without beeing paired up twice, storing sperm over the year.

This is a baby from her and should breed this year too.

I also have another pair possibly ready to go this year.

Here are some pics of the clutches hatching.

Gerrit,.........those are some great pics of the "little guys", love those hatching pics!!. ....Also, that's a cool aberrant photo of the "hypermelanized" one on the bottom!!..........Isn't it funny how many neonate Scarlets begin life with "white", or "cream" colored band, as compared to many other Milks already having VERY bright yellow band in the triad?!!......good stuff..................Doug
