Hello from Panama city beach Florida

Well after high school i really didn't have much time to breed or keep reptiles and i sort of forgot about it until about 4 months ago. since August i have accumulated 30 ball pythons a lot cam from kick balls some from bhp some from tsk. I really enjoy the prospect of having a few clutches in the summer. the reason i have decided to join the forum tonight is because i am about to loose my mind and i am getting very very frustrated. in 4 months i lost 2 snakes due to what i thought was respiratory infection.

That's a lot of snakes, in a short period of time, from several sources. I know you haven't been in the hobby for a while so you should look up proper quarantine practices. I'm not sure how you'd swing it with that many animals coming in so quickly - maybe a different zone for each source of your snakes.

dos anyone know if antibiotics will effect this female egg laying capabilities or kill sperm from the male, she locked up with 1 of my males 3 times 3 weeks ago

I would worry about getting the collection 100% healthy and problem free before breeding. Most folks wouldn't be interested in picking up anything from you if they knew you were having these issues. Might as well multiply that by 1000 until you determine the cause of these RIs, which are just as likely an underlying condition for something nastier.
