Very nice, JD! They are a really neat species.
Where the heck do you find the proper-sized eggs for them?

[JD@reptiles]

Very nice snakes. What kind of eggs were they?

[snkmn]

they look like rhombic egg-eaters

[JD@reptiles]

rhombic egg-eaters and African egg eating snakes are the same ssp

Assuming that you were to eventually breed them, what would you feed the babies?

Simon

[JD@reptiles]

i guess ill have to go raid finch nests... lol :P

[Simon R. Sansom]

I wonder if there's any way to make up some sort of an egg mixture and trick them into taking it somehow?

Hmmm...

[Emily-Fisher]

Those guys are beautiful!! Do you know where you can get them?

[JD@reptiles]

Yes i do

[alexandsnakes]

I've seen a book with pictures of tube feeding baby egg eaters beaten egg mixture. That's it, with no vitamin supplements or extra calcium, since they wouldn't digest the shell anyway. I can't say if I'd recommend it, but it's something to think about

Not that finches are hard to breed.

[JD@reptiles]

cool, thankyou for your advice :)

[Linds]

Those guys are crazy!

[CyberGypsy]

[JD@reptiles]
