Hi Everyone
Can anyone tell me when is the best time to put my burm with its mate.My friend Trespasser and i bought a pair at a show here in Holland.The guy who sold them to us came from Sweden and was selling them for a friend who lived in Stockholm . You could see that they where poorly fed this due to that they couldn.t get rats or mice to feed them.We have them now for 2 years and they are now 3 and a half years old .We feed them up to 5 full grown rats each and still they want more If anyone can help me with information it will be great


cya :thumbsup:

The female should be atleast 10 feet 40lbs but I'd say she is safe to breed. It would be a little safer if you had her in the 12 foot, 65-70lb range. All I can say is keep feeding the female heavily and keep putting the male in with the female. I have found that burms breed heavily from the middle of January to the end of Feb. For some reason burms seem to go a little earlier in the season than balls and usually all of my burms hatch out before my balls start hatching.

Good Luck!

I found that my burms breed in march. That seems to be the best time

Depends wha the climate is in Stockholm. My snakes know what season it is regardless of the temps or photcycles. All you can do is try. One precaution i would urge and I'm not sure what your situation is where you are. Are Burms and retics already over produced in the pet tradeby you? here in the US it is a huge problem with people buying snakes only to put them up for adoption. If There is a legitimate market for them I say go for it. If you have allot of burms going through rescues already I would ask you re-think about breeding Burms.
Here mostly its late winter early spring is best for most pythons.

pretty mature of you. Oh, also, Ed_r, please tell your people at RTB.net, that when i was on java, and said i left a rat over night in my BP's cage, they said what an idiot, and kicked me out, and i was informed by my friend that they had presumed it was live, which it was actually F/T. Thanks

Snakemann, I'm not her to pass messages for you to others. I was not involved in that discussion, so I can't comment one way or another on it. I go on a few sites, if I can offer my.02 to put a scene in someones mind that they have not thought about, or offer a solution to an issue then I did good. When you see sooo many come through rescues and adoptions, that are abused, neglected, or just plain "Wow I didn't think it REALLY would get that big" you get very prejudice against Burms and Retics, Anacondas and the like. Just like I'm against going to a pet store for a dog or cat, cuz there are so many homeless already.
I have talked to a few kids under 18 that I consider responsible herpers, I still would talk them out of a Burm. I don't know you well, so unfortunately I put you into the young herper class, which in my oppinion should not own a Burm. Just my oppinion. Don't need to jump on me, or have me be your messenger.
So lets just bury the feud and get on with life , its too short.

Looks like you ignored the question, then left on your own according to logs.
Don't trash other sites here.
You were caught in lies repeatedly both on posts and in chat.
