Is my snake retarded??

Conrad May 15, 2003 08:47 PM

I've had my pair of Russian rats together for like a week now. And I've witness probably two dozen attempts at copulation. But it's their first breeding and I think my male is retarded or something. He can't seem to find the hole. None of my other snakes I've bred have ever had this problem. Out of those dozen attempts...I've NEVER seen them lock up! He bites her, tries for like a half hour, and then gives up, never succeeding...I wish I knew what was going on here....
