some may find this interesting:

earlier this season i sold my adult male RHD woma because i plan on using a young hold back male next season and wanted to rest the female this season (breed the last 2 years). I still got her nice and plump for winter and still cycled her, as i do with all my adult animals, but NOT ONCE did i put her with a male (i actually dont have one to pair with here anyway until my holdback gets bigger)... long story short, she looks VERY gravid now! will be exciting if she is, considering she hasnt mated in about 14 months now. We all know this is possible, but it's not everyday this ACTUALLY happens for the average keeper/breeder. here's hoping!
(ill try and pics ASAP)

Very interesting Jason. Will be amazing if she produces fertile eggs - one to write up as a letter in a journal at the least. How are your WA womas going?

sweet thats awesome can't wait to see the pics. So if she does go again this season does she get a rest for the next???

these two shed yesterday so thought id grab some pics while cleaning up the mess they made. First up is a little female (who is growing vey quickly) and then an older male. They are kind of related - same mother. Will be pairing them up next season hopefully. Cheers,
Dave

 

[yommy]

love the un-uniform patterns on the last 2 pics my ideal pattern for womas, very nice indeed.......

 

[yommy]

the boodarie is looking gravid, should have a prelay soonish... i think she is a little later this year compared to last. fingers crossed though. I think im more eggcited about them then even my albinos! the boodaries are a STUNNING woma straight out of the egg and i have a couple of 'lines' im working on.

ill try and get some pics...she is definately puzzling me! will be interested to see what she does... still looking VERY plump, but still not sign of a shed coming on.
Part of me really doesnt want her to breed this season! the reason being the rest issue. i wanted her to rest cause next season i have that male hold back (which is looking GREAT) to pair with her.

Time will tell???

on a side note... the held back 3 boodaries, ironically the projects im working are similar to the BHP projects Den is working on. because i struggle to get a good shot, i thought id add this link to show what i consider to be a very similar comparison to be yellow and red boodaries
http://www.denpythons.com/Projects/Red Line/Red Pic7.htm
the difference i see between the womas is similar to that in these BHPs. my goal is to get the yellow background with even perfect red bands... ill result in a very nice line IMO

Can't wait to see them Jason! Aspidites are getting very exciting now as the results of selective breeding start to pay off.

 

[Greenmad]

Another one i bred last years season, he is getting lighter with every shed.

 

[yommy]

just shed so count down is on.......... love this time of year..........

 

[deebo]

[Sock Puppet]

An updated, post slough pic of my female RHD woma (got her from Neil & Cathy Sonnemann).
This is the same snake as seen in post #13 on page 1 of this thread.
She's now 760g at 10 months old, I can't believe how fast she's growing on a once/week feed.
Pls excuse average photo taken on a telephone.

Looking good sock

 

[yommy]

looks like i will be away for a few days with work when the womas due to lay. Has anyone let their female maternally hold onto the eggs for a few days before?
I am hoping she has good maternal instincts and will 1. lay in the nest box and 2. wrap and keep them nice and warm until i get home and can get them into the incubator.

Fingers crossed, anyone had experience, all good i hope

one of her tonight...........
