Ah, so if you are doing something that "mimics behavior found in the wild" then it is ok....

YouTube - Ball pythons in the wild[/QUOTE]

But this video should not be considered in the discussion for some reason... because it is a Utube video? Or because video of one happening certainly is not proof that it can and does happen?

Interesting concept isn't it? Keeping grow out females in pairs works for me. It has worked for me for a while now. If I ever observe a substantial reason not to do it in my own collection, I will change. Until then I will just keep doing what works for me.

In this whole big long thread there have only been I believe two or three replies to my original question.... The summary of those answers is that yes you can breed a male to multiple females at once, but generally breeders don't do it because they don't have as much control over the situation. Thanks. That is all the information I was looking for.

Good Day,
