    Curious on a timeframe
    So it's been about a month since the 'whoops!' breeding with a pair of my snakes. My girl's shown signs of building, but since then nothing. I'm just curious if there's an average timeline on about how long it'd take for me to know if it took or not. I still have an incubator all ready just in case, but now I've been watching her like a hawk.

    Some of the literature claims you should continue to pair them for 2 to 3 days at a time or less if you see them locked. Keep feeding a long as they accept but make it smaller meals. Really the best time to pair them up is after a shed cycle of the female. The basic timeline from pairing to laying eggs is 4 mos and 1 week approximately. 84 days from pairing to ovulation and 13 days to the pre lay shed. After prelay shed there is 30 days to lay eggs. :)
