YAY, at last. Someone who thinks along the same lines as I do.
Thank You Deborah.

My post originated as a result of a conversation among a group of Ball Python Breeders. The general consensus among them was that if I don't cycle, I will get poor results when it comes to fertility.

Do you perhaps also agree with my following theory. I had a pair show 3 definite locks, way back in December 2017, the female is definitely not showing any signs of being gravid, this led to the cycling conversation, my theory is this. " when she is ready she will start the process leading up to her laying eggs" and that this could even take place up to 6 or 7 months after having locked.

What are your opinions on this theory.
