Not related, but if you want to get your snake eating you shouldn't be handling the snake. Handling shouldn't be done until the animal is eating reliably.
How much experience keeping snakes do you have? It seems to me like someone just learning basic handling and who doesn't know to hold off on handling until the animal is eating might not be experienced enough to be thinking about breeding these animals....
I have had snakes sense the late 1960s.
Some days its just not worth chewing through the restraints
