Well, after a few years of infertile clutches, eggs deposited on the heat mat etc one of my Rhynchophis female (Vietnamese longnosed snakes) dropped 12 eggs. The same female had to be operated on last year because some of her eggs had stuck together and she could get them out. And now, succes!
Of the 12 eggs, 3 went bad and 2 contained dead embryo's. The other 7 resulted in nice little grey worms
Happy now
Now to get them to feed. I'll hold back some because I just love this species. |

stupid no editing after x mins...
Hope you get them started and feeding alright, what lineage are they from, I know that there was some really bad imbreeding at one time. I'd love a pair of these, very cool. |

These are straight from Klaus Schultz, if I remember correctly the original line here in Western Europe. I have heard about an unrelated Russian line as well, but wouldn't know who has those. Don't think there are that many easily available lines.

I haven't a clue Wish I did, because everybody who visits here asks me the same question. Maybe I should just make up some exotic function for it  |
