I was fooled, my normal went through all the motions!! I'm a newbee first of all let me say that, I've never bred any pythons!!! I did what everyone said I cut her off of feedings lowered the temps and put the male in with her. She blimped up like a balloon, I never saw them locked up either but saw them always all tightly knotted up together so after a week of this I took him out. After a month her demeanor was totally different she would hiss and strike at me when i went to change her water she was very aggressive at this point, she would curl her water bowl, she did a pre-lay shed. I got no eggs. Back to square one, the male is in with her again, this time he is way more aggressive toward her.
