Uninterested Male

[Andrew Larson]

So I am breeding my balls early this year because I am leaving to college and probably won't be able to take them all with me. I began cooling them down and I began putting my bumblebee male with females maybe a week or two ago. My temps are 85 hotspot in the day and 72 hotspot at night. My male does not seem to have any interest in the females. I havent seen any locks or interest. What can I do to entice him to breed.

How old is he, what weight? Some will breed young, but others won't.

Also, hot spot should be 87 lowest if you're cooling, I don't agree with cooling to such a low degree. Cooling isn't actually needed at all.

It might be that the female isn't interested.

Are you sure it's a male? (It happens)

More info is normally needed.

Unfortunately they breed on their schedule not yours.

I mean absolutely no offense by this as I've made a similar move, but why breed if you can't take all the snakes you already have with you? It seems counter-intuitive. Won't breeding just equal more snakes that you can't take with you?

Cheers,
