No Tim was talking about copulation. Your question wasnt clear thats what I thought too.

Laying eggs is a different story, I usually wait a few day after laying to try feeding. You also want to make sure you wash the female down good to remove any scent from the eggs, this scent may cause her to coil and strike as if she still is protecting eggs.

As far as breeding again you need to wait 8 or 9 months to make sure she has out her weight back on and is cycling again.
