Anyone bred boomslangs?

I've been noticing some interesting behavior among my 1.2 boomslangs. The male will act rather "jerky" (for lack of a better descriptive word) against the female, and she jerks in responce. I'm taking this as that it is most likely their courtship behavior. Haven't noticed any copulation just yet, though I'm sure it won't be too much longer with them acting this way. I only see him do this with the female that stays out of the hide all the time. However, he spends quite a bit of time in the hide with the other female, so he very well could have already copulated with her and is just working on the other female now, lol. Anyway, if anyone have ever bred this species I'd really appreciate your observations and experiences. I'm anxiously awaiting what happens next.
