Hey!
So I bred a pair of balls together last year, but my uncle really helped me a ton with it. I'm doing it more on my own this year and I have a question about timing of putting them together. I found a great page ( http://ballpython.ca/breeding/ ) and he shows three locks at the beginning and then the shedding and everything starts. Once you see three locks and then start seeing developing behavior do you need to put the male back in at all, or by that point can you be pretty sure she took? I'm super excited about my pairings this year and I don't want to mess it up by keeping the male out at an important time. I honestly don't have a good grasp on how/when ovulation takes place so I don't know if he needs to be in there right after that or if she ovulates after. I just am confused.
Thanks for any help!
