Breeding Process?

Hey everyone,
I'm knew to breeding ball pythons and I was wondering is there a link that can explain the whole process in detail? Or can someone here with mad typing skills explain it(start to finish)? I wasn't even sure why people cut eggs until a recent post, but I still don't know how you know when to cut them. I know I'm asking a lot but I plane on breeding hopefully this fall and I want to get it right! I have a very basic idea of the whole thing, but I just need to fill in all the gaps! :confused:

Thanks,

Dave

There's no rule saying that you have to or should routinely cut the eggs. Personally, I think it's better to allow babies to pip on their own time and only cut if you suspect a problem with the baby inside (if a baby is taking a considerably longer amount of time to pip or leave its egg, for instance).

Thanks!! I learned a lot from that site just browsing it for a few minutes
