    Question about Locks
    I have been trying to breed my Spider female and my pastel male for several weeks now and today I finally saw my first locks with them. I woke up this morning and found them locked I dont know how long they were locked over night but they stopped less then an hour after I found them. Then they locked again for maybe 2 hours I guess my question is I know some ball pythons lock for 12 hours or 24 hours mine seem to only lock for a short period of time does this mean my male has no stamina lol. Is it ok that they only lock for a couple hours?

    in my research mostly because I can only speak of my first lock from experience that occurred a few days ago, a lock can take place anywhere between 4-24 hours on average. I would say just keep giving them time to rest and then pair them again and hope for more locks, ones bound to get the job done ;)

    As in humans, it doesnt always take a long hookup to make a baby,

    Sometimes once is all it takes,

    Good luck!

    I have one male that will only lock for a couple hours at most and I have another male that will lock for 24+ hours. Both have produced eggs and offspring. I think it just depends on the male.
