How to get a male to breed. ?.

[bradthebanker]

I have about 5 female ball pythons ready to breed this year, 3 normals and 2 spiders het albino. I also have male albino pinstripe for the girls hes about 600 grams and when I introduced him to the spiders he never locks up with them but I also have a male lesser pastel who locks up with everyone I put him in with and hes just 800 grams but I want the albino pinstripe or my pied male to hook up with the spiders. Is there a way I can getbmy pied or albino pinstripe to lock up with my girls and get some babies I really want to have ?

How old is the pin? He may just not be mature enough. I have a 1kg pin who isn't producing plugs so... yeah. It's entirely possible he's not ready.

The Albino pinstripe hatched 7/29/2012 and last weight was 621 grams on 9/23/13, pied weighs 673 grams on 9/23/13 and in don't 6his hatch date I bought him 1/21/13

You can try taking a sperm plug from the one who does lock and rubbing it on the back of the female. Also, you can try throwing a shed from the male that does lock in with the stubborn boy while he is in with the female. Or try throwing both males in with the female and let them battle a bit (supervise of course). Then take the male you don't want to breed the female out and leave your stubborn boy in there.

How long have you been pairing? Just stick with it and just kep pairing when he is ready he will lock up persistence is key sometimes with new males!

I started pairing on nov 1st I had a normal female take right to thr lesser pastel female and stayed locked up for 3 days and she ate 2 rats last sunday and I put the lesser pastel back in with her that Tuesday and she imidiately grabbed him snd started coiling him I got them apart and he was shaken up but fine and put another rat in with her she grabbed it like she was starving to death and also yesterday she was acting hungry so I threw another rat in and again wasted no time eating it (4 in four days) so I hope thats a good sign she took, and yesterday I put the lesser pastel in with a spider het albino (wanting the albino pinstripe to father her clutch or my pied male. Just a fyi im new to breeding them ive had them over a year I just started to get into breeding so forgive me im new to this
