| At least the B.caudalis respond well to force feeding even though they take much much longer to eat on their own compared to cornuta and atropos. I have not seen South African Adders like this before , especially from the Zim/SA border definitely not. The female looks similar to Rob Deans Namibian specimen on another topic...
Thanks for the extra pictures. | |

| Beautiful pair of caudalis, congratulations on the birth. Second generation is great news.
I would guess the original ones are from Namibia, the pair are a nice match. | |

| Once again thank you guys for kind words! Yes Christian, they are small! :-) and there will be some months of forcefeeding before they took whole pinkiyes. But Caudalis are rather easy forcefeeders. The other day they had their first meal, and all of them took it without a problem - little mouse tail. I push it about 1/3 in and they slowly swallow the rest themselves. Walter, the female is about 30cm long (3 years old). | |

| Hello Rob, Unfortunatelly from 5 babies that were born 2 were a bit weak and strange and they died after a few days. The ramaining 3 are really good, I forcefeeding them every 5-6 days. I do various things - mouse tails, mouse legs, both with a drop of Bioserin, and I have also tryed Hills A/D mixed with water and injected with small tube directly into stomack. Eventhough I prefer forcefeeding with tails and legs since it does in a way teach them how to swallow, the Hils A/D makes them the most full and they remain looking like that at least for few days. I will continue both methods, forcefeeding pinky parts and A/D, but as I said, they are rather big so I will try to switch to pinkies asap. And it looks like all remaining 3 are males! | |

| Thanks Neven. I too am raising some baby caudalis from newborn and have been forcefeeding them since January. Last weekend the female took a pinky without assistance for the first time. The male is much smaller and will take more time.
Keep us updated on the progress of yours. | |

| The reason for difference in photos (color of animals) is due to the fact that it was taken with 2 different cameras. The last photo is closer to true animal colors. Sorry about that. | |
