can a ball python be pregnate after a few matings?

i have a normal female that my friend house with my male pastel while i was gone. she is showing signs of pregnacy by seeking cooler side, wraping water bowl, not eating. she's loosing weight kind of but no drasticly. this female is 900+ grams. the thermostat was malfuntioning in sept.- feb.1. and it was like 65 or lower at night and 80 in the day at the warmest. so it made her grow fasscals. and i think she may be gravid? what do you guys/girls think? they were together for 3-4 weeks straight.

Well, technically it only takes once.... If you think that they did the dirty deed, just keep an eye on her, it might be nothing or she very well could be gravid. Be prepared for if she is!

Were you planning to breed them?

maybe in the future because when she was over 1500 grams the male i alreagy seen spearm plugs he able to breed not sure of the female

As stated by muffin "it only takes one time", did you or your friend see any locks?
The thing with reptiles though, they can store sperm, I had a female last season, who mated in may only, but gave me eggs in Oct. so.........

I would think that if your temps were off by so much, that could be the cause for her not eating and behaving differently. I don't think that keeping her in less than ideal conditions is going to prompt her to start building follicles though if she was housed with a male, that could do it.

I sincerely hope for her sake that she isn't building or gravid because that's just asking a lot of a 900g ball.
