So I want to breed my two ball pythons now, a female spider with my ghost male. I have read alot about breeding BPs and I feel like I should try. Yet, I have some questions to be answered:

1. Can I move my male to the female one day after feed day?
2. Will my female (1400 grams) be ready to breed with my male (700-800 grams)?
3. Should I keep moving my male to my female until I see her ovulating?
4. Will 3 days of mating, 3 days of resting and 1 day of feeding work?
5. How protective will my female become when she get her eggs?

I might come up with further questions later on. I hope I will get some help
