i am it sutton in ashfield do u no how far it is from here

I wanted to know a bit more about the breeding process and I read a study done about the breeding process saying that the pheromones where specie-specific but not subspecie-specific, meaning for example, a Thmanophis sirtalis will mate with any subspecie of Thamnophis sirtalis but not with any Thamnophis "non-sirtalis". Has anyone here observed the same behavior?
I'm asking this because my enclosure is big enough to host at least two couples and I was wondering if it was safe to have two different species in the same enclosure (I've got another enclosure the same size but I might use it for some Scheltopusik, aka Ophisaurus apodus although their lifespan kind of scares me, since I'm already 28 and can't say i've got the heathiest way of life there is

)

I know of a succesfull breeding between radix and sirtalis, with some babies as result. So I would not do it, you might get hybrids.

Chris,
Ive checked it on the route finder for you its only about 30mins away. I'll post the link for you with the directions.

Route Planner (GB) : Maps and directions - The AA

You cant miss it when you get there, the name is in big green lettering and there are snake and spider desighs on the window.
The shop is open from 10am-5pm everyday except Sunday when it closes at 4pm and its closed all day on thursday.

Hope this helps
