Re: breeding info
Well to start you need a male and a female ;)
Here is what I posted recently as an answer to a similar post

The information is out there and it will be much more rewarding to search and learn on your own then having people spoonfeeding you their own personal method.
Everyone does things differently from pairing to incubating there are various method, what is important is to find what works for you and your animals.
But in the mean time this is a good start http://ballpython.ca/gallery/breeding/ (just don't limit yourself to this) and then if you have specific questions, things you do not understand just ask.

Re: breeding info
tried google, wanted to hear other peoples methods though, never bred any reptile befor so i figure might as well gather as much info as possible before attempting.

your question is too broad and unspecific.

I would make sure you can properly care for them before you try to breed. Stability is a good thing too you dont want to have to move when you have clutches. Ive had reptiles for 16 years and this will be my 1st year breeding, and BP.net is where you will find all of youre info.

Re: breeding info
I also find it best to get a mentor who can assist when you have questions.
I had Morgan Weiss from home grown scales and Brian from bhb reptiles they both were a great help and answered all my answers promptly. I can't stress enough, do your research, they are quite a few methods and they all work... Choose what works best for you. A few sources to look up, bhb reptiles, for goodness snakes, Ralph Davis reptiles they all have videos on YouTube as well, snakebytes TV, Brian Gundy, Ralph Davis ... There's also a breeding thread which is a sticky I think.

Re: breeding info
Read everything you can get your hands on. Books, websites, forums, etc. Seriously. Ball pythons are easy, but nothing will take the place of being as prepared as you can be BEFORE you start.
Take time and WATCH your animals. Way too many people focus on what this book said, or what that forum said, or run to ask questions when a lot of times your answers will be right there in front of you if you just take the time to look.
Have a good veterinarian ready to go. You'll eventually need one.
