    Breeding question.
    How many of you beleave handling/holding baby and juvenile ball pythons everyday will keep them from breeding when they get older or make it a lot harder to get them to breed?

    One has nothing to do with the other.

    The first two I paired were regularly handled pets and had no issues producing. I did leave them alone for the most part during the breeding season, though.

    How is one supposed to be connected with the other?

    Because apparently YOU believe (and want to know if other do as well) that holding a young animal daily will prevent them from breeding.

    So YOU are connecting daily handling and failure to breed?

    I would like to know how one can be connected with the other? Your question, what would even make you think that one can cause the other?

    Re: Breeding question.
    I am guessing OP is assuming something like, "taming" the BP by holding it everyday will lessen its nature to want to breed, as it would naturally in the wild. Which CAN be seen in many animals that are kept in zoos/captivity. I don't believe there is a correlation between the two regarding snakes, though I'm not sure.
