Expensive meal ? Pics....

I was not often on the forum lately but this couldent pass... A big surprise when I got home!

I was in a hury to leave , I had to clean her cage but didint take the time to put her in the plastic containers I usually use when cleaning time. So i've decided to put her with the male. These guys when they are growing eggs eat like pigs and are in constant search of a meal until about 2 weeks prior to laying. They would eat a styrofoam box if given the opportunity

I thought it would be great to share those pics there's not many on the net and not many documented... The male was about 1 - 1.5 kg about the same lenght as the female. What is even worst is that she is gravid again and i'm affraid that the eggs are gonna be squished, the size of that meal is simply to much.... Anyways another statistic Dont take me wrong it got me mad, not at the snake but at me..... On a positive note isint that called experience?

Now I just hope that the eggs will be ok and i hope to find some males that i've previously sold to buy back to keep that line....

You can see how the scales are distorted around the first 1/3 of the body .... The lower part of the body of the male is still there....








As I said on another french forum I think i'm gonna breed and grow flowers from now on
