Well, it's been awhile since I have posted on here, I've recently come in contact with a few new snakes, so I will share some new pics... I should be getting in 3 new Animal Plastic T-50 cages sometime soon also, so I will post more pics of my cage setups whenever I get those in!

Anaconda Breeding Attempts:
My males are deffidently ready to get the female for sure. I'm planning on keeping them together for a couple of weeks and then seperating them, and putting them back together, kind of teasing the females. I'm sure they will come around by march!

Thanks for looking everyone!

Ooh very nice. The anerythristic looks like he's growing! Good luck with the breeding

Wowy! Thems a lotta snakes thur.

Thats a lot of snakes. Very nice looking though! Hope your breeding attempts go well.

Thanks everyone! It's not too bad, it's 6 Anacondas and a GTP, lol. It seems like a lot, but I only have *1* female Green Anaconda, and shes going to be the biggest. My new cages should deffidently be handy though, easy cage stacking.

Thanks,
Ben

Hey do you still have that Super tiger retic?

That sure is a great looking bunch of snakes. Anacondas are really cool, but much too big for me to keep.

Nice snakes. The colour is just amazing.
Your GTP is small compared to the andacondas!

Thanks everyone! Yes, I still have the super tiger, he was in shed, so I didn't get any pics of him... But I'm going to have to be selling him though... I need all the room I can get for these Anaconda projects... I really don't want to sell him, but I'm already going to have one 6'x18" cage, three 7'x18" cages, one 8'x24" cage, and then I'm going to get another 7'x18" cage over the next few months. So that's five 18" high cages and one 24" high. Which is a pretty nice size stack of cages, lol. But we will just see how everything works out..

Thanks again,
Ben

cool pics

Aren't anacondas dangerous? That was my first thought when I saw a pet shop selling a baby one.

Wow Ben!

Do you already have homes for the babies? private owners or zoos? How will you house them all?

Good Luck!

Anacondas can be dangerous if you aren't careful and know what you are doing with them. There is a big misconception about them though, but I'm not going to say they aren't dangerous.

For the most part, pending on how many neonates I get. I have a nice waiting list of people, lol. For clutches from snakes that wont even be bred this season even! I can gaurentee that the babies will sell fairly fast though, depending on how many I get of course. I'm not sure on if I'm going to keep any or not, so we will just see how it goes.

Thanks!
Ben

How many is in the average clutch? Can you keep the babies together or would they nibble each other? Will she lay eggs in a lay box or just in the cage?

Well, for a Green her size, she will probably have a small clutch, maybe 10+ neonates. As they get larger, they can have up to 40+ neonates. Babies should do fine with eachother, shouldn't be too bad at all, and if they do nip at eachother, I can seperate them. She will lay them wherever she feels comfortable enough to lay them. I give each of my snakes a humidity hut/box to lay in either way.

Thanks,
Ben

Very nice pics! Any pics of your "wall/stack of cages"?

Nope, Still waiting for the next 3 to come in... I have a stack of cages right now, but if you look into my past posts, you can find them, otherwise I will get some new pics once I get the new cages in and set up.

Thanks,
Ben

gorgeous collection

Cool I would never keep a Conda!! You are one fearless guy
