Thanks Adam and BT! Adam, I remember you giving Joanna the advice about a male being too heavy when she was trying to breed Malachi last year, so I've kept him lean and athletic - even though he loves his rats! LOL

He is very enthusiastic about breeding with Pandora, although he was slow to start with her, she's "his girl" now and he locks each time they are introduced.

However, leave it to ball pythons to make you a liar - I got home today to find Pandora in her own corner and Sierra and Winston locked this afternoon (and still locked now)!

I'll keep the hope alive now! LOL
