I've been wanting to pick up a pair of these for a while now. Congrats, you should have a second clutch coming soon and a third after that.

Re: African House snake babies.

Gratz on the new babies. I was looking at those a while back, they seemed really easy to care for. What are the parents?

Re: African House snake babies.

Hopefully these guys will take to extra small pinky mice, apparently babies can be difficult to get eating.

Here's a copy paste of the pairing.

Cape African House snake pair, Indigo, female is a T- Albino and the male, Ukiah is a normal het Albino. They were paired on 8/29.
10 eggs were laid on 11/4/14. Looking to have hatchlings around early to mid January.

Here is Indigo, T- Albino Cape African House snake.







And Ukiah, male normal het Albino Cape African House snake.







Several of the eggs were infertile and one or two of them failed a couple weeks ago so there are just 6 left.

Re: African House snake babies.

First baby has fully emerged and is a whopping 4.3 grams! And I'm about 90% sure this one is a female in the first gender check.

Re: African House snake babies.

Omg that is an amazing albino!

I usually am not fond of albinos because they have red/pink eyes. (I know some people love that, but i don't ), but those are the coolest eyes for an albino!!

Re: African House snake babies.

I'm the same way! I don't usually really love the albinos but have always loved the albino house snakes because of those awesome slit eyes!

Re: African House snake babies.

The second baby is out and a nice 6.7 grams. Less sure but looked maybe female too. No other pips yet.

Re: African House snake babies.

One more baby out this morning and two new pips. The baby that's out is 6.1 grams and looked female in the first gender check, which doesn't mean a great deal.



And got a visual albino, yay! The other pip is a normal. Just one more egg left to go.
