Also my favorite of the Bitis, and definitely one of my top 10 favorite species, but it's too hard to decide. I am delighted that you might get the first captive bred specimens! Hopefully, they will be as common other Bitis. I, for one, found this series very interesting. I'm sure that you wanted to stay for as long as possible - just like your very first snake breeding years ago.
I hope that you are rewarded with babies in the spring! Do you intend to keep all the babies or just the stunners?
My favorite of the Bitis genus. Congrads, Al. I hope the young lady gives you another litter of 20. If I can ask, what model cage are they in? Fascinating set of vids.
This was really interesting. It was kinda neat how the male chased her around the cage and the female acting like she doesn't want it, lol. Great video, glad you had the privilege to be the first to document these guys mating. Cheers.
Did this video series yield any offspring?

al, always look forward to your vids. Thanks. is the chartreuse coloring dominate, what are the chances the babies will be that color
buzzboa 3 years ago
No, I think it's recessive. None of the 20 babies she had this spring showed the males coloration.

with the AHS courtship lasted all of 10 seconds & copulation well over 6 hours!
these guys certainly seem to enjoy a fair bit of foreplay eh?
LMAO @ "help help!!! i'm being drug by my penis!!!"
congratulations Al hope they give you some ncie little babies!

Great vid Al. 2 questions.
1. Is "Studly" now his permanent name?
2. How long till we get to see Studly juniors?
user12348071 3 years ago
Still undeceided about his name. If she is fertile and becomes gravid the babies should be born in March of 2009

Finally, he scores! I didn't think he would score last night because she got mad at him in part 2 when he stopped off for a drink.
Congrats, matchmaker Al. I hope the slither slither of little babies follows soon.
