I am trying to breed my two rtb and I think I have succeeded but I'm not sure. I put them together in a tank and they were interacting with each other for a couple days and when I checked on them they were always laying together.
One morning, I found that my male was on one side of the tank and the female on the other. Is this an indication that the snakes mated and there are babies on the way?
Help from experienced breeders is appreciated!
Thanks
did you ever see copulation???? i think that is how you spell it. that is a good indication if they are copulating. from what i have read you should take the male out of the females cage and then re-introduce him over the course of a couple weeks for a couple days at a time.

yea the ultimate care guide is awesome and all the info you need is in there. if they did mate often near ovulation the male will loose all interest with the female.
