I know, but they give live birth nonetheless. Which causes a hazard for the babies. The Mom gets so hungry (Because they stop eating while pregnant.) that they'll attempt to eat the babies after giving birth. So in captivity, you need to seperate the babies ASAP. In the wild, they have to flee on their own.
This reminds me. About 2 weeks ago, they discovered a species of Boa that they presume to be asexual, because she reproduced an all female clutch of baby "Half clones" without mating with a male. Nature is so amazing.
I saw an all white Chinchilla at the Reptile show (It's a primarily Reptile show, but they also have a small selection of exotic mammals, like Chinchillas, Porcupines, Hedgehogs, Fennec Foxes, Etc.) it was so cute though.

I call bullshit.
Then what is the benefit to the species for not reproducing literally every moment that the organism is alive?
Link me, but either way, there's more to that story...
Oh. Yea I don't know how much they go for lol. I've never seen one being sold. All I know, is it's EXTREMELY rare. Very few of them have ever even been produced.

This is a Blue Eyed Lucy. No matter what species of snake, it's ALWAYS one of the most beautiful morphs. I'd feel like God if I ever produced one of my own.

In all cases, Blue Eyed Leucistic is considered the "Holy Grail" of snake morphs because of how hard it is to produce and because of how gorgeous it is.

TECHNICALLY, back when I was 9. He lasted about a year. But that was when I didn't take care of them properly.
Is that Cuppy?

This is a troubling statement.
This goes against a lot of evolutionary concepts. While it may seem rash on my part, I believe these scientists to be wrong.
