: Woohoo!! My mandarins are breeding as I type! I wasn't expecting this, but do males typically bite the females during copulation? I've never seen that in rat snakes before. My male grabbed the female a few inches down from her head and held on! I used to breed Mexican black kings that would bite, but they would just grab the skin above the neck. This mandarin has a mouth full... I thought he was going to try and eat her at first and I almost separated them! Just curious.

: Thanks!
