Lock or not??

What should I look for and when will I know. This is all knew for actually breeding. I have been reading but nothing says an estamated time frame to know anything.

Think about it like you would with people - babies don't happen every time a mommy and a daddy do their thing. Breeding is far from an exact science.

Check out this fun Breeding Pictorial from Markus Jayne to give you some more insight into the process: http://ballpython.ca/gallery/breeding/.
