question for breeders of green and ...

MagusP Dec 25, 2007 07:21 PM

yellow anacondas. My friend has both green and yellow anacondas. While he has bred a few other Pythons and has a lot of experience he has run into something that he has never quite seen. His Green Anacondas have been breeding non stop for 3 weeks..locked up almost at all times. While he is familiar with mating balls etc...he wanted me to ask if they should be separated and fed. Also they chose to bred in a cooler part of his enclosure (75)...they can bred in temp up to 86 and have access to a hot spot of about 90. Enclosure was large enough to establish several microclimates. The temp thing is not the question. It's the strategy of separation and feeding and reintroduction that he is interested in.

Has same question about his yellows. Thank you for any Intel you can provide and any further information as in resource data would be greatly appreciated.

here is a pic of one of my yellow's...

I breed yellows, my male eats less than 4 months of the year, they are breeding since early Dec. when the female completely refused food......when she swells at the end of Jan. I will separate them til next year and offer her food which she will take(f/t rats), till she has her pos then she will eat one more time and thats it till she gives birth........The male will not eat till his next shed, late March probably. You got a wicked yellow by the way.......Mike
