Can't count.

Wow! Had no idea it was that long. Did you cool them after breeding? Did you cool them prior to breeding? -Thanks for the info.

I just re-read your first post. The snakes I worked with were taylori, which at that time were a sub-species of bilineatus..not so now. I would not be surprised, however if the gestation periods were similar. I did cool them a little..only in that I did not heat the room, allowing temps as low as the mid fifties or so..as cool as it gets here in sofla in the Fall.
