Hi, this is not my area at all. but since I replied to darn near everything else, I can't leave you out.

I bred ball pythons last year.

I was new to that too. I was told the female ball gets a bulge when she is ovulating. And at one point she sure did. Also as my male was mating from Nov to Feb he never ate unless I took him away for a few weeks. Once my female ball ovulated, she stopped eating, til she laid her eggs. Have a pic of her eating on 9 eggs somewhere.

And the male may probably just be more interested in mating?

If they are active and drinking, I don't see much trouble. BUT PLEASE, wait for others.

Hope it helps
