this is my first breeding season and i am a little confused in what to look for in breeding females. i started pairing my 2500 gram normal female to 3 males starting in december. Just recently, my males seemed to stop showing a lot of interest towards the females. i mean i see a lock here and there but not as frequently as before. what does that mean?

another thing i'm curious about is my 2500 gram female has shed every month since january(has shed twice since january) and her belly is pink once again going into shed this month. she seems to also be hungry all the time with a feeding response like no other(super aggressive feeding response). just curious to what is going on with her because i know at that size, ball pythons do not shed that often. my small snakes average a shed per month or even evry 2 months and those are constantly growing with a tight feeding schedule.

any insight would help. thanks.
