    Mating has stopped

    They seem to have had enough. How can I tell if she took?

    Mostly wait.

    Keep your eye out for the ovulation and post ovulation shed. Be prepared and keep your fingers crossed.

    Cause when push comes to shove you taste what you're made of
    You might bend, till you break cause its all you can take
    On your knees you look up decide you've had enough
    You get mad you get strong wipe your hands shake it off
    Then you Stand

    They were breeding a couple weeks ago and then they both shed.Then they breed somemore now they have had enough no lock ups for two days. How long before I can tell if she took.My first time breeding snakes her first time too. How will I know she is ovulating?

    There's no set time schedule.

    Here's a great tutorial, that helped me quite a bit. http://www.ballpythons.ca/gallery/breeding.html

    Ovulation looks like your bp has swallowed a football. I saw my first one last year, but missed it this year. You best bet is to start counting about 27 days from the next shed.
