This girl is looking quite uncomfortable for the past week or so. She looks to be really full of eggs!
Once laid the eggs will incubate at normal colubrid temps for over 100 days! The first time I experienced these long incubation times I was really getting worried and wondered if the breeder had lost them. When he finally called to tell me that the first ever lineaticollis breeding was successfull and the eggs had finally hatched I just about jumped for joy.
The camera angle and lens type seem to have diminished her 6ft length and massive girth.
