First of all if you admit in your post "know my conditions are not optimal" maybe you should get them optimal before attempting to breed. If you can't add more cages perhaps you need to find a new home for some of your snakes or move some into another building? Maybe sell one male, give each female her own cage and house the other male somewhere else until he is needed for mating?



Second, there really is no shortage of Burmese pythons in the pet trade and many wind up in the hands of uncommited owners, unless you are breeding very rare morphs or already have a buyer lined up for the babies you may not want to breed at all or at least not all 3 females the same year. Keep in mind that normal burms fetch very low prices and common mutations like albino and green are pretty low too relatively speaking, especially if you sell the clutch to a wholesaler or broker for resale.
