Hey Folx...

Looking for some advice...

My Vipers were seen breeding between new years day and mid feb... sweet
Im fairly certain shes gravid, due to her bottom half girth which can look sort of lumpy.
She had a slough mid May, eats only ever other feed now (was an exceptional feeder until last couple months).She goes between the heated section and her water bowl every few days for the last 1.5mths.
Iv got a moss box in her RUB for her, and a large water bowl.

If her shed was a pre-birth lay, how long (roughly even) do you think for little critters

Nice Vipers. Are you the guy with the SGR red group? Best of luck with the little snap dragons!

I have a pair of red australis that I am 89.9% will produce a litter this season; fingers crossed. He has been in with her since her preov shed. She is plump in the latter half, so we'll see.

My male followed by my possibly gravid female (both are old photos).

Hi Denise

Gestation for Aspera is around 8-9 months, that should give you an idea of time scale. I'm in the Uk so I hope to see some little red guys from you in the near future!

Do you have any pictures of the femaleat the moment?

Cheers Matt

With parents that beautiful you are going to have some ridiculously pretty babies. Are you going to sell them on kingsnake.com?

Unless you are in the UK.... Its pretty unlikley

I will just be happy if all turns out well and I do indeed get little biters
