Dear Venomland Members and Friends, Venomland is a little more than 6 years old now and by far the biggest Hot Snake community on the Planet! We want to thank all of you who made Venomland the leading Board. We are also very thankful to our Moderators and Admins for years of hard work. Now, it is time to move on. I have been thinking how to proceed and what to do with our beloved board as we reach a size, that we need to make drastic changes to secure the future of our community. As of now, Venomland is hosted by a free (well mostly free) hosting service. That was good for the first years but now we need to find a new way to run our forum. I have spend hundreds of Dollars over the years to keep Venomland up and running, and i have done so with pleasure. Now, we need your help! We need to come up with several thousand dollars for our Venomland 2.0 project, which i frankly cant pay for any longer by myself. So Venomland is asking his Friends and Members for the first time for their financial Support. Please help to keep Venomland alive, and let us move on to a new, better Portal in the Future! Every Dollar is helping us a great deal. I know, its hard times for everyone, but please spare a few Dollar for our community. If you have only 10 Dollars to spare, we are grateful, if it is more, it would be awesome. We are planning to develop a very new Venomland, with real community functions, a forum like you are already loving it and a real (online) Hot Snake Magazin. Also, there will be download areas for scientific papers, Wallpapers and more. Again folks, we can only do that if you all help. Please send me a Private Message if you want to keep Venomland alive, i will provide you with the details on how to donate Money. For now, we can accept money from creditcards via skrill (please google it, its a free service - account-details will be forwarded to you) and paypal. All the best, and for a (hopefully) nice future of our Board. Mario

Hey Johnny,
Like I said when you bought them mate, the male will let you know. He goes off food and starts to pace endlessly. That's the time to introduce him to the female.
These are kenyan, they do not have a cooling period.
Cheers mate,
Al

In SA where I’m from they are pretty easy to breed. Normally just introduce the male to the female in early spring once the temps start increasing after she has shed. I have heard leaving the shed in the cage helps as well. Generally they are not a problem to breed though. I wouldn’t worry about spraying the snake. We generally just give them simple dry cages consisting of newspaper sheet as a substrate a hide box and a water bowl and they do fine on that. These are obviously SA Puff Adders so I’m not to sure if the husbandry for your Kenyan ones would be any different. As far as I know they seem to like a drier environment. Good luck I hope you are successful!

Mating take place from late autumn to early spring, according to the area and temps.

The young are born from late summer to early autumn (9 - 10month gestation period locally).

New born young tend to be from 15 to 20 cm in length and average batch in captivity sizes vary from about 15 to 40. Have seen batches up to 70.

They don't need much humidity - 30 - 40% is about their norm.

Regards.
