possibly but highly unlikely. If I were you I certainly wouldn't even be giving them the chance to breed, if by chance a sick female did become gravid the stress on her could easily kill it. It's generally accepted anyway that females self regulate their reproduction and will only do so if they are in peak condition.

Ohh jimmy, i cant believe you are thinking about these snakes breeding. Breeding is the last thing these snakes should be put through in the state they are in. They should be kept apart, and treated for their illness's first and foremost. And i dont think the snakes will breed anyway, like us, they know they are ill, and wont be thinking about breeding.
Get them well, and possibly think about breeding them next season Jimmy.
Cheers, Alan.

There is a chance Jimmy but it is a very very slim one. Can't remember the ratio but you could just seperate the sexes so you need only 2 enclosures instead of 5. Don't think the males will fight as they are Diamonds but that would be better answered by someone with more experience with the species.
