Should I continue to put them together?

[Scaleyz]

I have been placing my normal female and male spider pythons together, for 2 days solid they have been locking up. I separated them after they seemed to be rather exhausted so I fed the male, the female wanted nothing. Now I place the male in there again and they don't seem to want anything to do with one another, my question is are they done? Should I call it quits with this pair now?

How many days off did you give them?

But don't quit. Keepem pairing

Just want to make certain they weren't locked when you seperated them. This can severely damage the hemipenes.
As far as pairing them again, yes, continue to pair them up regularly. Let them rest between pairings and try and keep them eating. I have males that never go off feed and can breed non stop, but some need to be shut down if they go off feed and lose weight. The females usually start feeding heavily when they are developing eggs, but go off feed when the eggs get larger and they are close to laying.

I do 3 days on 3 days off. The first day separated I feed.

3 days off, I fed him, she wasn't interested in eating. I'm not surprised ever since breeding season started she went off of feeding by herself.

I gave them 3 days break, I haven't given up yet. I put them together again, they aren't showing any interest in each other as they were when I first put them together.

Oh nono, they weren't locked, ouch!!! I'm not that newbee, I'm asking because after them being together for 2 days locking and not for those 2 days then 3 days break for rest and feeding, there seems to be no interest now. Should I keep him in there anyway?

LOL, glad to hear. I just keep pairing until I catch an ovy or she is obviously gravid. If they don't lock after 48 hours I pull the male and try again a few days or more later. I have had males lock after being in with a female nearly 2 days and seeming uninterested.
Just noticed you are in Hollywood, FL, me too.
