    I went ahead and moved the thread for you. Best advice I can give is to just be observant. Write down anything out of the ordinary and include dates so you can later look back and learn your timelines. Pay special attention to the female and record changes in behavior. Make note of shifts in activity/feeding, how and where she lays, her general body shape, etc. Finally, don't pair your snakes unless they're in good shape - if skinny or overweight, fix that issue first.

    no DISRESPECT, it's extremely EASY when a person is still living with their parents....So this ("HOBBY" <--like many others on here) should be no prob for you...if i were you i would have asked my loving parents to purchase me some ball python books..42 WOW all full grown im guessing how many are male and how many are female and what types do you own eg, NORMALS/PASTELS/MOJAVE ect..??
