don't laugh I have seen someone put 100 Colubrids in something slightly larger...he breeds more dif Colubrids then I ever kept..I have kept well over 100 species in over 30 years...plus the setup is nice and your snakes are secure and properly taken care of...I only have two other rooms...one's a bathroom...I do not sleep with the snakes...I woke up in a 6 foot vision once..damn alcohol..glad I quit

Ironically, my snake, at least for now, has a very spacious home. I was originally planning on getting a female as well, so I bought a 4' long cage with a divider so I could put both in there. Ended up not getting the female, though. And I made sure he is secure. I have a sad escape story from a few years back, so I vowed that will never happen again.

So when you woke up in the Vision cage, was there a giant snake outside the tank dangling a beer in front of you with tongs?

Thanks,
Ed

LOL, to many snakes to list, last count:
26.49 BRB
20.21 BCI
And those are only the breeders

lots.lots.lots feeder mice and rats

Didn't want to embarrass my pubescent JCP...no wonder he has no interest in other snakes...if u meant the shirts..I use them while feeding and workin the room...some my pissy snakes are shy lol...They appear to have an attitude with any type of Voyeurism...the MAGS...have to go for the pic's...he's only supposed to rub his water bowl while he's shedding...before u say I am outa line...I got that from Reptiles and the fact that male Iggies masterbate and rub their genitals up against their water bowls...only odd since I added in the "Bird Talk" I guess...part of a joke I made up after reading that issue...ad decided to take said iguana to the vet..who assured me it was normal for them to rub them against their water vessel...I told him I know that..but he was reading bird talk at the time...hehe

showing pics of puked up eggshells.

Guess I'm stuck in here even though this is a rotten place to be, have not found anything better.

I always thought the egg eaters were fascinating but didn't know they were typically WC. Has nobody had success at breeding them?

I have heard it's been done. Never seen them available and it's so small now we are afraid to probe it. Plus if I properly sex it...what are the odds of procuring a properly sexed one any ways lol...THEY ARE SUPER KEWL snakes...was baby syringe fed for 9 months from previous over new. We tube fed it once...my friend purchased 1.1 zebra fiches and he had them laying eggs in 2 weeks time...he's lucky like that...his favorite pet I remember over the years was his fresh water electric eel...it was TOO FREAKIN' KEWL lol...this one is most definitely wild caught...long term captive before he got...ok maybe 12 months isn't long term lol...
