Re: OMG....Babies!!!
Yep don't worry...I'm learning more and more, to legalize a wild animal it's a hard process (photos, medical certificates, photos of the enclosure, conditions, etc.) It's a free process in my country but I do not have the time, so I prefer to pay $40 dlls to my vet to do it
![]() The terms are...in small words, that my snake is going to be declared property of the nation under my custody, the gouverment gives permission for normal people to breed wild animals under captivity, but only certain species, they check that they are kept in good conditions and not affecting the habitat, so the babies are going to be 100% mine. Still I don't think I could sell them, I'm going to try buying a male or another baby melanogaster's, and let's see what happens I'll talk to him on the next week maybe he found something about the export... |

Re: OMG....Babies!!!
How many babies you have greatly depends on what species, the length of the snake and the age. I think the average is a bit more normally for your species, but that's maybe for next year

Re: OMG....Babies!!!
I really hope so
![]() And news Finally the trout worked...thanx adamanteus, and also I did a trick I put a transparent bowl with Guppies (male and female) well a trick that wasn't supposed to be a trcik lol... I was so desperate, it was about 25 days since her last meal and I said what could I loose I hope that the guppies don't have parasites, so I put the fish in the bowl and then she saw the movement and spent a couple of minutes chasing them on the outside, just going around the bowl, so I put some trout in a plate really close to the bowl, and then she smell them and suddenly she finished all the trout, I chopped a few big pieces and she ate all, then I remmembered that I had a pinkie alive in a box but at that time she was already satisfied, so at the end of the week I'll try again with pinkies.And no "feeder guppies" on any pet store =( hope that the trout work for the babies too ![]() |

Re: OMG....Babies!!!
sea monkeys...or brine shrimp aren't really on the list for garters to eat...also they are small, would take a bunch to feed a baby garter if th ey ate them.
