    Lesser girl confussion
    This girl keeps going on mini cycles of bowl wrapping, refusing food, laying inverted, shedding, eating, then repeating. She only breed once and won't give anyone else the time of day. Any ideas on this girl?

    Nice looking girl! Have you palpated for follicles? Palpating will help a lot.

    I suck at palpating so that won't do any good. ARamos, what do you mean by curling tail?

    Practice, it is a very useful technique and really takes a lot of the guess work out.

    I think they're refering to 'tail suck'. Before ovulation the tail will kind of curl a bit and look like their trying to suck it in from the middle.

    Here's a good website with some pointers on the different stages. http://www.ballpython.ca/gallery/breeding.html
