Copperhead babies?

SlipKorn Jul 11, 2004 12:57 PM

I have a WC copper that was gravid when she was caught. She wasn't as fat as she is now. She is pretty fat and wide at her back end. I was just wondering when she will have her babies. I was also wondering if she will give birth on dry substrate(Aspen) or if she needs a moist nest box before she will have the babies? Thanks.
