    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Hi,

I hope I am posting this in the right place but. I have a question about breeding that I could not find the answer to online. I just started putting my male to my female and at first it didn't look hopeful. Today I noticed a lock but to my dismay me opening the top startled the male and I noticed his hemipene fell out. Yes I actually saw the body roll sideways and the pene was sticking out. It was totally unexpected and I was actually going in to remove him and give another boy a try at it at the time it happened. I immediately put the top back on and then I turned the lights off again and continued with the Barry White loop I was playing (kidding about the Barry White lol)

Now my question is if the mating process was interrupted like this will they be ok to keep in a day longer and get them to mate? Will they try to mate again?

Upon putting the top back on I noticed the male rubbing the females tail again and it looked hopeful. I am just hoping I didn't fudge the duck on this one.

Also what are the chances if they were hypothetically like that all day of copulation actually happening. I know this process is generally like a one or two day process but I was just wondering the likely hood of him actually knocking her up if the lock happened earlier?

Hope all that made sense and thanks for any answers.

Again I am new to breeding so I already know it was kind of a rookie mistake to interrupt them.
 
During the course of the breeding season my males will copulate with each female many many times. It is never a one and done process. Just keep pairing them up for a couple of days at a time every week for the next couple of months and let nature takes its course.
 
Thanks I have seen a lock out of these two before but it wasn't a very good one so I didn't count it. This was the first successful one I could say for 100% fact was a lock. I didn't know that it took more than one lock to make it happen so that was very useful and put my mind at ease a bit more.

The two are just a pair of normals but one is a very very pretty normal (the female) which is why I decided to give her a go. I have a buyer for all my normals already which is why I figured I would try with a pair of normals first before going with any kind of morphs. They are the only two snakes I own old enough to breed. I have a couple of female king/milks I have to wait on to get up to weight before they can have a go with my Knoblochi king. So hopefully her first clutch is a good one.

Thanks for the quick reply.
