I wish I could help but I don't know what to tell you other than I put them together in early fall and forgot about them then one day in March I think it was I saw them copulating. I left him in for about another month then seperated them.
Do you have any specific questions?
There is a lot of good infor on corallus.com.
Cheers,
Trevor

That male is something else. Looks like a cross between a cooks and an ATB or annulated and an ATB or something. The reason I say that is because the snout is so long compared to other ATBs. Could just be the pic though. Some nice looking though that's for sure.

Even if he was a cross, would he be able to breed with my girl?

Thanks :)

Yup as long as he is a male and she is a female. There are ATB ETB crosses out there too.

Cool Trevor, hope you have a trouble free season!

Do you cool yours?

I am wondering if you just put them together if they will breed?

Last year the room they and cage they were in was droping into the low 70s at night. This year they are both in my snake room which goes down to 75 at night. I don't touch their basking spots. According to The Reproductive Husbandry of Pythons and Boas they have bred while being housed together year round and with out being temperature cycling.
