I admit, I'm not much of a poster.. Meaning I dont wright much with my posts.. Breeding a yearling female at 800g grams would be Very dumb.. So I breed my yearling females at 1000-1200g. I never believed the old 1500 to begin with LOL! But I'm just a poser anyway..Originally Posted by rabernet
John, it's always exciting to me to see how you think outside the box with regards to these animals, and I know that you often advise members to learn to read their animals.
But for someone new to keeping ball pythons who doesn't have the experience that you do in reading their animals, what do YOU look for to determine if a 800 gram female can safely be bred? I am concerned that some of our more eager members might see this and think that their females will be just fine at a year old and 800 grams - that 800 is the new 1500.
What's so great about this site is that we can help guide newer keepers and at the same time, provide new and exciting information for more experienced members.
It would be really cool when you post these that you give a little more back ground so that we can learn more from you!
Hi Ralphie!!
