Questions About Breeding Diamond Pythons
Posted: November 4th, 2015, 12:40 pm
Does anyone have any experience breeding Diamonds? I have an opportunity to acquire up to a pair of diamonds, in addition to the pair that I already have.
Ideally, I would get the new 1.1 pair, but our finances are fairly limited and most likely I will not be able to do that. So, my question is, should I get the extra male or the extra female?
I have found in my reading that male-to-male combat is a good thing with the Morelia complex, but I have also heard that it is not required, or even necessary, to have successful reproduction with the diamonds. Can anyone verify this? Or refute it?
Thoughts? Anecdotes? Experience?
