Try something REALLY far out and cool, and breed the Honduran to another Honduran, and a Yellow Ratsnake to the other Yellow Ratsnake!

Or at the VERY, VERY least, talk about it over on the hybrid forum, which is exactly where the conversation belongs.

To be honest though, if you cannot even tell which snake is a male and which is a female, it doesn't sound at all to me that you should be doing any breeding of any kind yet until you get much more snake experience under your belt. I don't mean this in a negative way at all either, just some friendly advice.

The whole process of producing a bunch of young babies to feed, and their proper maintanance and housing is quite a challenge actually, and costs a fair amount of money too. This can be a whole bunch of not so fun work, believe me.

Many people want to simply breed things without giving very serious thought to the consequences.
