Has anyone ever successfully gotten there snake to donate a bit of sperm?
I would be interested in hearing your experience. Also, does the female need male stimulation to induce egg gowth?

Does anyone have any ideas of how this would be done?
Ideas are Welcomed!

i have heard rumors of it being done in the past but sperm was collected from a male that was stimulated with a female and the male was then culled and the sperm was harvested. like i said it was rumors and i had not heard if it was successful or not

When I die, I want to go peacefully like my Grandfather did, in his sleep -- not screaming, like the passengers in his car.

Here is a link to an article by Ray Hoser. He claims to have bred every snake in his collection using AI.

Definitely an interesting read. Was also published in the European Snake Society Journal, Litteratura Serpentium.
