Helping a friend sell a pair of Dwarf Burms. Below is all the info from him as well as some current pictures as well as the female laying and the eggs. I am only looking for local or "semi-local" so the snakes can be looked at in person before they are transfered. They are not my animals so I want whomever is interested to have the opportunity to see them in person.
They were both hatched in 2004 and I purchased them from Camlon Reptiles.The male is about 5 feet. The female is at least 6 and a half feet.
Both snakes are docile. The female has never bitten me. She is very cranky when in shed so I don't bother her at that time but other than that, I have no problem picking them up. Sometimes a little hissing but that's it. The male has only bit (twice only) when striking for food and missing, he is easy to handle. The female is just heavy and large but not aggressive. They both have good feeding responses.
The female eats medium f/t rats; about 5 at time.
The male Burmese so far won't eat anything but live mice (I haven't tried rats with him but he refuses frozen thawed). I was told to not give him anything until he eats the f/t but even after 5 months he turns up his nose at them so I go back to buying him large mice.
In 2008 I decided to try breeding them.
I put them together right before a storm and let them share a cage for a few days. I think the drop in barometric pressure and humidity stimulates them to lock up. They locked up right away and off an on throughout the time they were together.
They produced eggs in 2008 but because of poor husbandry on my part, the eggs got moldy. I did find babies in the three eggs I checked that were further along including an egg with twins.
The pics of the male were taken this morning and it looks like he is going into shed. I will be feeding the female this weekend and can take more recent pics early next week. The ones I am sending of her are a year or two old. The egg pics are from 2008.
