breeding question that might be dumb

[garett]

This is my first time breeding and I posted the other day about the snakes not seeming interested and most said give them time but my new question is. Is it normal for my male to stay on the side of the glass a good bit of the time? The glass has actually physically gotten dirty since I have had him in there? Male pastel 780 g. Female normal 2500 g. Thanks -garett

Well... Not sure what your setup looks like, but if he is breeding, and he is in a tank, I wouldn't say it would be a problem that he is against the glass.

Well I haven't seen them very interested in each other and he mostly just trys to climb the sides. I didn't know if that meant that he was stress. Thanks- garett

There is no such question as a dumb question, it is good to be sure of yourself.
Anyway i would not worry about it, and if he is climbing up the sides than it could be a sign that he is hungry, and/or stressed. How big is the tank?

Thanks guys. The tanks is a 50 gallon display tank. Its where the big female lives and it fits her good. I have noticed that she is a bit more active since he has been in there with her. I'm planning on feeding today so I will feed them both and start breeding again monday. Does that sound good ? Thanks -garett
