Right ive got two female normals, 1 proven (2kg) 1 un proven (1.4kg). My plan was to breed em next year and acquire a male and poss a few more multi gene specimens also.I got the normals so i have a greater chance of hatching something in my first year(next year i was planning). Now ive only just got these last week (earlier than expected had a deal to good to turn down) so i was gonna keep them and slowly build my collection next year ready for the winter.

Trouble is now ive got the females, im looking at the calendar and thinking theres time to go this year. Found a guy whos splitting with his mrs and needs to sell asap so i can get a male 600g spider het pied for a good price.

Assuming i quarantine them for 3 months i could still pair in december. Obviously this is dependant on them settling in OK but what do you guy think? BTW ive only read up on husbandy so far so if any of my breeding plans are ridiculous please dont assume im just some idiot who cant be bothered to research and point me in the right direction. i Really want to get some experience under my belt this year ready for next year when ill have some more exciting/expensive animals

I have the ECO complete ball python book arriving in the post tomorow (im in the uk and the VPI books a nihtmare to get over here) and i will be reading that extensively the next two days to get up to speed on the breeding side of things just want to know i this is viable.
