I wish I could have 2 males for everything but some of the morphs are too expensive for me to buy 2. So far all of my females have been bred at least 4 times. The only female that is being a little stuck up is of course the Het Lavender female that I want to produce the most. My het Lav male will lock up for a full day with any other female I put him with but when it comes to the het lav female I have seen 4 locks but they were all short ones. He will line up his tail all day long but she just doesn't let him get in position. I just switched her to aspen from newspaper a couple weeks ago and that seems to be helping. I don't know if it's just a coincidence but she seems to be more receptive to him since the switch.

Change is good for lots of things when it comes to ball pythons.

This is the best tidbit of info I've seen in a long time, so true......too many people dont understand that what works for you, me or anyone else, might not necessarily work for them. These animals are individuals, just like every person on this forum Great post Adam!
