My cerastes started breeding last night @10pm. They are still "stuck" together at present & I was hoping somebody had a few suggestions on what I should do??? I already tried soaking them in just enough water to cover their tails.
Thanks for any advice.

37 hours later they separated. They seem no worse for wear & both seem content under their basking lights. I had never heard of snakes being stuck for such a long duration but if it ever happens again I know what to do...nothing.

A few weeks ago my cerastes were copulating and get stuck for two and a half day! I did nothing to seperate them.

I know some bipeds who would KILL for that kind of stamina......

No kidding!!! I guess if it only happens once or twice a year you better make it worth while!!!

I'm glad to know I'm not the only one who's had this happen. I wouldn't have worried except that I had never heard of it going on for so long & thought there might be a problem. Thanks for your reply!
