THX everyone & in reguards to "how hard to breed" EASY Same as all the other Colubrids. Keep them well maintained & brumate them proper & when introduced to each other wahla. Just as easy as Cornsnakes. The trick with GBs is establishing the babies. They suck LOL Most don't want to eat for upto 3 months after hatching. You can try scenting & force or assist feeding, but I find time is the almighty factor with them. I'm almost positive that in the wild that they don't eat until the next spring (if they make it). You get the odd ones that will eat from the getgo, but most don't want to eat for 2-3 months depending on how big their "yolkguts" are LOL It gets to the point where you are so frustrated with them & then all of a sudden they all decide to start feeding. When you contain 50 snakes with prey overnight & like 2 eat it can be disappointing DOH Anyhow once started they usually feed really well & there is no turning back. Its waiting for them to want to eat that is the problem LOL Mark
