Re: Just some cool statistics for those as Anal as me!
Thanks for all of the thanks. I am glad that anyone could atleast get some foresight or any kind of knowledge from this post.

Tim,
How many female you breed with one male? I know it also depends on the morph you want to produce. Maybe you can tell me avarage ratio of your male:female breeding.
50% success rate of the female that copulate and lay egg will show some people that it's not that easy breeding ball python. It doesn't put me back but it makes me realize that I must work harder to be success in breeding them. Thank you very much for your post Tim.

Im lucky, I have a 100% lay rate. 1/1!!! :sunny:

Sweet odds Randy. I hope you can maintain that percentage for years to come. You did better than us in our first season. We went 0/4 our first year.

T,
It really depends on the project. However I will say that we do not put a male with any more than 5 females. This year will be interesting, as I do have a couple males that may get 6 females this year, but I know they are strong breeders as I have been able to observe them over the years. Some of our projects may only have the male breeding his one designated female (example would be my double het for True Ghost animals). Hope that helps a little.

Yep we were 0 for 3 last breeding season but this year we're better prepared I hope and better educated due to all you wonderful, experienced breeders.
Re: Just some cool statistics for those as Anal as me!
You are a very good breeder! All those records are simply amazing.
Re: Just some cool statistics for those as Anal as me!
My stats have no where to go but down. I also had a 100% hatch rate for my single clutch this year.
Thank you for sharing those numbers Tim. I'm sure it will give me comfort and reassurance in the upcoming years.
Re: Just some cool statistics for those as Anal as me!
This is some awesome information, Tim!
I would LOVE to put together a study/article of just such statistics. If there are any breeders who would like to work with me on this, shoot me a PM. :D

Judy,
Let me know what you are looking for, as I keep some pretty good records on all sorts of stuff. For a while when we first got our snakes I even weighed their waste, as I was curious as to how much they retained from meals they ate.
