Breeding Ball Pythons in the same room as a MALE Retic.

[Stealth]

Good Evening,

I've recently acquired a male retic, and while he is still a baby, eventually he's going to grow up and learn about the birds and the bees! I was just wondering - Since male retic's are known to get a bit feisty during their breeding seasons - If housing him in the same room while my ball pythons are mating could trigger a response from him? I do not own any other retic's and doubt I ever will, so the only situation that I would need to look out for is the one I have listed above.

Thanks in advance!

I've not noticed that my three ever cared about the ball python females, but then I also have female retics in the same room as the males.

Thanks for the response!

I'm sure it won't make a massive difference but thought it best to check since there are 34 ball pythons and I'm guessing that could give off a bit of an aroma and trigger a mood from the little guy.

Since he's still a baby I'm still having to learn a few things as I go! For example I haven't had to deal with a retic in breeding mode before.
