    My female ball python changed colors.
    Hello. I've had my female ball python for about 7 years now. She's always been a dark greenish brown color. Today, I took her out of the tank, and she DRASTICALLY changed colors. She looks like a different snake now. (However, she has been mating with my male ball python for quite some time now. I don't know if that has anything to do with it.)

    But here are some before and after photos of her.

    (She's the darker one on the bottom)

    This is her now.

    Any ideas?

    Nice glow. Keep an eye out for an ovulation. It looks like it's on its way. :gj:

    I've heard several different methods as far as incubating goes. What would you guys suggest? I've seen dozens and dozens of tubs full of incubated eggs, and it doesn't look like there's any heat source.

    What are some good, stable methods of incubating?

    You posted asking about breeding back in JULY. You said you had read up on it quite a lot. You posted again that "they did it" back in AUGUST.

    And you are just now asking about incubating methods? You've read up on it, but you don't even know enough to know that the reason you don't see any heat source on all those egg tubs is because those tubs go inside an incubator?

    Please read up on it and ask any necessary questions NOW. And please don't wait for the eggs to start hatching before you ask about how to care for the babies.

    Yes, I back in July I did post, saying I did read up on it quite a bit. Here, I just posted that I am aware of several methods. I wasn't stating anything different in either of those. I was curious as to how people on here chose to incubate their eggs. My curiosity shouldn't present a problem, neither should my wanting to explore around a bit and possibly find easier/better/safer ways to incubate them.

    I log on here, and I post on here, for questions I need answered, all leading to the well being of my reptiles. Not to be hassled.

    Understand, and try to be polite. :oops:
