Re: Just Starting out! HELP
they should be seprate at all times (except when its time to breed). go to the link on the home page for 8 ball pythons, you'll find some of the best morphs there. google bp breeding you should find a care sheet on all of the spicifects(sp). best of luck to you.

First of all you have 4 ball pythons you need to have 4 enlosures they should not be kept together see this to have an idea on why not house them together http://blog.myspace.com/index.cfm?fu...e-d9fdd0635574
First you will need to have them sexed
Second before thinking of breeding you have to make sure your BP are the proper weight (male 800 grams - females 1500 grams) and that you are providing each one of them with the right husbandry (Enclosure 1 BP = 1 Enclosure so 4 BP = 4 Enclosures, right temp and humidity level etc).
Where do you get morphs? Well you buy them from reputable breeders so you gonna have to do some researches to find out who is selling the type of morph you are looking for.
As far as how to breed and some basic you can check this out http://www.8ballpythons.com/journal/...ngcalendar.htm
Breeding requires a lot of researches so do your homework
Re: Just Starting out! HELP
I think the FIRST step should be to use the SEARCH function. Then ask your specific questions.
