    Re: breeding info

    Well to start you need a male and a female

    Here is what I posted recently as an answer to a similar post

    The information is out there and it will be much more rewarding to search and learn on your own then having people spoonfeeding you their own personal method.


    Everyone does things differently from pairing to incubating there are various method, what is important is to find what works for you and your animals.


    But in the mean time this is a good start http://ballpython.ca/gallery/breeding/ (just don't limit yourself to this) and then if you have specific questions, things you do not understand just ask.

    tried google, wanted to hear other peoples methods though, never bred any reptile befor so i figure might as well gather as much info as possible before attempting.

    really, just read this forum.

    your question is too broad and unspecific.
    The Big Bang almost certainly (beyond reasonable doubt) happened 13.7 billion years ago. If you disagree, send me a PM.
    Evolution is a fact, evolutionary theory explains why it happens and provides four different lines of evidence that coalesce to show that evolution is a fact. If you disagree, send me a PM.
    One third of the global economy relies on technology that is based on quantum mechanics, especially quantum electrodynamics (electron-photon or electron-electron interactions). If you disagree, send me a PM.
    Time Dilation is real, it is so real that all clocks if they are precise enough can measure it, and GPS could not possibly work without it.
    If you disagree, send me a PM.

    The 4 philosophically most important aspects of modern science are: Evolutionary theory, Cosmology, Quantum mechanics, and Einsteins theory of general relativity. Understand these to get a grip of reality.

    I would make sure you can properly care for them before you try to breed. Stability is a good thing too you dont want to have to move when you have clutches. Ive had reptiles for 16 years and this will be my 1st year breeding, and BP.net is where you will find all of youre info.

    I also find it best to get a mentor who can assist when you have questions.
    I had Morgan Weiss from home grown scales and Brian from bhb reptiles they both were a great help and answered all my answers promptly. I can't stress enough, do your research, they are quite a few methods and they all work... Choose what works best for you. A few sources to look up, bhb reptiles, for goodness snakes, Ralph Davis reptiles they all have videos on YouTube as well, snakebytes TV, Brian Gundy, Ralph Davis ... There's also a breeding thread which is a sticky I think.
