    Succesful mating?

    Hi guys,

    I posted my new male T.sauritus in february and after a short quarantine and fecal tests, I considered him healthy so I decided to try to put him to the female's in march.
    After about a week or two when the snakes lived together, the female shed(ovulation shed?) and then they almost immediately started to copulate, that was on the march 19th and they continued every next day for a few hours for almost a week.
    Since that time, the female was feeding furiously and gained some weight.
    Today, april 16th she shed again and the male is not interested in her at all.
    Was this the postovulation shed? And does it mean the mating was succesful and I should expect a litter of baby snakes in june?
