    when ever she is ready
    ball pythons will breed year round in captivity no true set breeding season
    when she is old enough and large enough introduce a male it is really that simple
    Laziness is nothing more than the habit of resting before you get tired.

    You introduce the male into the females tub/housing.

    Is it best when both go on food strike or just when she's ready?
