.. this is my last breeding female from Guyana, South America - is that a "wasp-waist"? @Anyfoot
And her mate of 12+ years -
And he was always courting(?) her -
As you can see she was almost 14" SCL and he was almost 12" SCL - they are still together a few states away..
They made upwards of - I don't know - 100+ babies over the 10 years they produced - this is just one of them from 2013 -
They actually spin inside egg as they "pip" / break the shell -
.. and then rests for as much as 24 hours before coming out -
And in the "nursery" incubator absorbing the yolk-sac - it could take a week for that.. and then another week until they take their first bite of greens, etc.
Shown here less than a week out of the egg -
