I finally got some pics of the babies...sorry, the quality is not great...especially in the pic of Perseus...my son was taking the pics while I held the snakes. If you could help me confirm sex...It would be greatly appreciated. I'm saying...Bella-definitely female, Zeus-male, Perseus-female? Little Joe is male so it looks like I'm going to have to come up with the money for another tank, another shelving unit...and separate these babies asap.

Bella...7456

Zeus...7457

Perseus...7458

I would say all three are female. The photo of Zeus is the only one that made me check again. I still think all 3 are female through.

Hmmm...that is not good. That means little Joe will have to be alone. I think he is too small to put in with Hermes and Possum. I hate separating snakes and then housing one alone. Anyone have any baby males they need to get rid of that would be the size of Joe?...he's about 10 inches long...heads about the size of my pinky nail.

Why separate now? Nobody is at breeding size/age, right?

I'm thinking Zeus is male and the rest are females.

I agree.

That is what I thought. Well, that is better...if Zeus is male for two reasons...one, little Joe will have a buddy when I separate...and two, we changed Perseus' name to Persephone last night...we couldn't think of a female name for Zeus...lol. To answer your question Steve, the babies are all 7 mos old...except for Bella...who, I think could be a little older...not sure on her age. There has been some courting behavior. When should I separate?

I'm going to take another set of pics of all the babies and I will post when I get them.
