    Wow that's awesome to know !!
    I didn't know ball pythons more less likely but that's a good thing if you don't want to breed

    Re: Female VS Male care

    So I have a question if you have a male and a female in the same room together** in separate enclosures of course** does that affect either one of them as far as one knowing the other is there and wanting to breed

    Pretty much you just would want to wash off your female with a chlorhexidine solution to get the eggs scent of her and do a complete cleaning of the enclosure (same principal getting the egg scent of the enclosure) and start offering food again.

    But the chances of that happening are VERY VERY slim.

    Yes it can affect them, males are generally the ones with which you will notice a change they can go off feed however males and females go off feed anyway, because they are ball pythons and because not only they are over fed in captivity but anything and everything can affect them.
