Hi all!
So my "male" lucy ratsnake laid eggs a couple years ago. She'd been a rescue and was previously housed in an unknown situation. I got her from a friend of a friend, so she very well could have bred and laid eggs late in the year. (I had her about 6-7 months or more at that point) Is there much chance of a clutch being viable at that point? There were about five and she ate pretty well after she laid them in her water bowl AND pooped in it
so there wasn't ever a chance of them hatching, but I was highly encouraged by the laying. I'm considering getting her a boyfriend to raise up.
I was wondering if anyone had any advice for breeding this species. I want, ideally, a lucy male rather than a het and I'm happy to wait to raise up a male. Are there any issues with cannibalism with these snakes?
I'll have to post some pictures soon, she's a gorgeous girl and quite sweet!
