  1. Reproduction

    Much has been written on breeding snakes. Before attempting to breed Ball Pythons, read as many in-depth sources as you can. It is a money and time commitment, which should only be entered into only after much thought and research. Important points to know: the sexes should be separated for several weeks prior to mating, and kept at cooler temperatures at night (68ºF). The eggs, generally 4 to 7 in number, are laid about a month after breeding. The eggs are easily damaged. The mother will incubate the eggs. If necessary, they can be incubated in a separate cage at around 84-90ºF, at high humidity (90-100%), although some recommend incubating at 65-75% humidity and increasing it to almost 100% several days before the expected hatching. Eggs usually hatch in 60 days. Hatchlings often need to be force fed.

  2. To breed ball pythons you would want to get a male and female first. Then you would wait until they breed....

    You must know if your female is at the right age and weight to breed before attempting to do so. You must be 100% sure that the female and male are both healthy because if either one are sick they run a very high risk of spreading it to each other.

  3. READ as mush as you can first, it would be a shame if the young died or never hatched because the owner did not know enough about the subject.  Sorry if i sound harsh but it happens far too often.  Just my way to encurage you to read all you can and it would hurt to talk to a herb vet or a reprible breeder.
