    Depends there is no true timeline of events. If you are lucky Apr/May but it could be sooner or it could be later.

    I would get cranking on the bator.

    Unfortunately there's not really a set amount of time. These ladies go on their own schedule. Here's a good timeline to give you an idea:

    I was wondering this same thing, not because I'm in a rush but just out of curiosity. Have any of you had a female lay after just one pairing? If so, how long after the pairing did she lay?

    i just recently got into ball pythons, been doing boas for over ten years. when you breed your balls, do you use two males, is that what you are saying?

    No. I'm saying that I've never paired a single female with a singe male one time and hope that she took. I normally keep pairing until I see an ovulated or have decided that she is not going this season.

    It makes me a little nervous to think you're pairing before having that kind of knowledge.
