First breeding season - Questions
So, after finally another evening of lewd and lascivious behavior (in the front of the cage, for the world to see), the pair I first spotted mating weeks ago are now on opposite ends of the enclosure, (she on the warm end and he, perhaps rightfully so, cooling off on the other. I should also mention she ate a small meal today, he did not.
If I remember correctly, it's a good sign she's on the warm end, correct?

Meanwhile, in the other enclosure, the fun never ends for very long. I guess either Linc likes being on the bottom, or she accosted him today!

Re: First breeding season - Questions
I understand birth takes place 110-120 days POS. My question is, how long after the successful lock should the POS be expected?

Go back to your boa breeding research and reference that. It shall answer your questions.

Re: First breeding season - Questions
Brilliant! I mean truly, what was I thinking asking a forum such a question? I should just research it! Perfect! Off I go to find the answer!
If you know the answers to these questions, please, by all means, move onto another post. I'm using my other resources to research these on my own.

Re: First breeding season - Questions
Mods, feel free to delete this post. It's not appropriate to ask in this forum. I need to do research on my own if I'm ever to learn anything.

Re: First breeding season - Questions
What the hell are you being all uppity for?
I gave the answer I could only give since I don't breed boas (yet). I have my resources for any questions regarding ball python breeding and it's laid out in writing for me. I've done my homework regarding my endeavours and I would hope that anyone looking to breed would have done the same already.

Re: First breeding season - Questions
Sorry Aaron. Your answer felt like a scolding for not knowing the answer to such a basic question. I know I need more research, and I'll keep trying to learn what I can, how ever I can. Yes, I should know the answer, but previously all I'd found was from POS to birth, not conception to POS.
I'm not doing my animals business any good by advertising the points I'm still ignorant about anyway.
I'll do more research, privately.
Sorry for the above tantrum.

Conception to POS is usually not tracked. It all depends on the individual female. You won't be able to find it I don't think. Each female ovulates at different times.
I misunderstood your original question.

Re: First breeding season - Questions
Thanks. I figured it would depend on the particular female, but I thought may be an average, or some sort of expected timeframe.

Re: First breeding season - Questions
So, two nights ago I moved the breeding male into the cage with the 1.1 that have been idle for a while, and she has not yet gone into shed. I did this in hopes of creating "competition" and encourage a lock. Well, it worked flawlessly, and the introduced male got right to business.
So, should I remove the incumbent male to another female since he's not busy at the moment, or might that cease the breeding between the other two?
Thanks for reading!

they are not silly questions Roy
re carpets
its good to know the average length of time between last observed copulation,to ovulation
also the average length of time between ovulation,and pre lay shed
also the average length of time between pre lay shed,and egg deposition
also the average length of time between laying and hatching
my Carpet Python charts won't be much use to you as its a different species,but its all important and relevant info regards breeding mate
i hope everything goes according to plan for you
cheers shaun
