Is this their first year that breeding was attempted? And what methods of enticing the male did you do? I mean, the best way is to get a freshly shed skin from female and put it in the male's cage so he can smell her and it should drive him crazy. Always pacing his cage for where this female he's smelling is. Then introduce them a half hour or so later. But with my jungles, the female is now 6 years old and the male is 5. Last year was my first attempt and I only witnessed one copulation, and she never ovulated. So this year I did exactly what I said above and I left them together all throughout the cooling period and they were locked up every other day for 2 months strait. And then she laid 11 eggs with 100% fertility. Snakes can be somewhat like humans, they need to "fool around" or "experiment" before they do what nature intended. Better luck next year man.
