Padawan Breeder Questions

[Alicia]

I've personally not heard about any breeding issue with boa constrictors, the carpet group, reticulated pythons, or Burmese/Indian pythons.

Not a personal story by any means, but about 20-25 years there was an article on retics in an issue of Reptiles Magazine, in which there was a photo of a male and female posed together in a cage. The female had ugly, deep gashes where the male had opened her up after being introduced. IIRC, the thought was that she must have smelled like a rival male.
