Atrox breeding questions

bthacker May 22, 2007 08:31 PM

Hey Guys....I bred a pair of Atrox and witnessed copulation for a couple days in early March. When should I expect babies if she did take or from copulation date???

I have googled it but found sites that I am not to sure about. I have bred Boas and would think it's similar as far as when to expect a litter from ovulation.

Any info would be much appreciated!

Hey...I've never bred atrox myself, but living where they are quite abundant makes me think I can comment on when you can expect babies....If they bred in March (which is about when they would do so in the wild), I'd imagine you can expect her to drop in approx. August or September....at least that's when I see alot of young atrox all over the place...

Hope this helps!

Brett,
I would expect them to birth late July-late August.
I assume thats the pair you got from me? they look good.
