    Still no luck
    Im trying to breed my two normals and they are still showing little interest in mating. She is 3'7'' and about 1300g and he is 3'4'' and around 1350g. The male recently just lays on top of her or visa-versa and ive tryed just about everything in the book to get them to breed. So hopefully sometthing sparks within the next couple weeks.

    1300g is a little low on the weight side for females from what I've read about breeding bps.. i thought 1500g was considered bare minimum.

    The weight issue has been debated to death here. "Most" people won't even consider breeding unless the female is in her 2nd winter and at least 1500g. Others have bred at a lot lower weights and have had success BUT they are more experienced breeders. Too much of a risk if you ask me. So to the OP, just keep them paired. Keep an eye on the weather and plan your pairing when a front is moving through. I did that when I first paired my snakes and they locked right up and have been that way for the past week. GL to you :gj:
