Many questions that have been answered many times before.

This website really helped me out :

>>The rest of this year I am going to focus on getting a job, getting atleast one rack system, making an incubator and some other small things.

Best idea so far.

What temps do I bring the snakes down to before breeding?
I am dropping the hot spot to the same temperature the low spot is. From october to march ( -).

Do I slowly raise the temps or just raise them back to normal over night?

Some do it right away. But I prefer to do it gradually.

How many females can I safely breed one male to?

That's differ from one breeder to another. And one male to another.

How long do I keep him in with one female before I swap him out?

Ideally, you want to give him some rest. A 2-3 days to feed, calm, shed etc...

What temp do I incubate at to get mostly females or mostly males?
You don't. It's not like leopard geckos. Temperature in the incubator doesn't affect the sexes.

How will I know if the female is pregnant? How many days before they lay eggs? I guess that's it.

You have to look for an ovulation, pre-lay shed and count the days. (All the information is in the website I gave you, with multiple pictures).
