    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....

Will the female's feeding pattern change after she mates? Will it increase? Or does she typically eat less or stop eating? What should I expect?

I have African house snakes (colubrids). I have read that egg laying occurs 55 to 70 days after breeding.

What might I expect or what is most likely? More eating? Less eating? Or refusing food at a certain stage in the process?

If given a choice and if she were willing, I would be happy to offer her food often. That said, I've not done this before?

Thanks for your time.
