Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

I've heard of people breeding small males, not that small though. Through my personal experience I found that just because a male is " breeder size " it is not a clear indication he will breed. I've founnd with some males you just have to wait, when they are ready they will.

I have a terrible time with young males period. I have one who is about 350g now who I am trying to get bred back to his mother and nothing so far. I am hoping that between now and April it may happen but if not, there's next year.

I'm not having much luck with young males, either. My smallest ones (that I'm currently trying to get to breed) are between 400-500 grams. The biggest one that I'm having problems with is a 600-700 gram '09 male that doesn't seem to be able to figure it out.
As far as breeding at 200 grams, I don't think you have much of a chance with him. Not only is he most likely not sexually mature, but your smallest female is going to be at least 6 times his size!!

I dont breed anything less than 750. The tend to drop too much weight and breeding that small/young just doesnt seem right or healthy. I think of my snakes as my kids, a 200g snake is like a five year old, not ready for anything yet. IMO I think you should wait a bit.
