Haitian wood boas breeding today

prprjp Mar 11, 2010 11:59 AM

Checked on my Haitian wood boas (Tropidophis haetianus) during lunch and a male was copulating with a female. Have been cooling these snakes for close to 3 months now and this has been the first breeding activity observed.

Anyone else with species of Tropidophis, please get in touch.
Thanks, Ryan

Wow! That male is really wrapped around her! Guess he wants to make sure she won't get away from him, lol.

Congrats!
