Re: Breeding

That brings back really bad memories of our cornsnakes' feeding accident. I'm still traumatised by that incident. Luckily the swallowed snake eventually recovered and the nasty wound on his neck healed, leaving just a pink scar.

Yikes!
That is a rather gruesome picture........I'm also curious as to whether or not either survived.

Re: Breeding

I forced the one to regurgitate and the red spot was still alive but only lived a few days afterwards (sucks too cause after it was still alive I decided to keep it because it was such a trooper). the one that was eating it survived and ate like a pig until I sold it.

I had fed them separtley (as noted in the other picture I posted) but was keeping all of my thamnophis offspring
in a 20l together. the puget smelled the fish that the red spot had ate and attacked it and began to swallow. If space allowed I would house them all separetley but breeding several species and having animals constantly coming in and going out it is not feasible.
