Hi

First off choose your pairs carfully the best breeders you have if you have got many choose the for best colours and patterns.
your biggest female bloods and your biggest male balls.

do as you would normaly do running up to the breeding process, when they are ready to breed (Timing is important) get both pairs stimulated virtually to the point of coppulation then move the male ball and place him on top of your female blood,you may have to do this more than once before copulation takes place,once there is success you will need to copy the process as many times as you can over the next week or two.

i would say try with as many pairs as you can as often as you can, also you may be better off if you have someone to help with te swap process, ie to stop unwanted pair coppulating while you are waiting for the wright moment to move a snake over.

There is no guarantee that you will produce viable eggs but with luck you will.

also dont forget that if you dont have any luck with getting them to mate just carry on and mate your pure pairs..

also try keeping some fresh female ball shed with a small amount of water in a spray bottle and spray the female blood just prior to placing the male ball on top, helps stimulation.

Good Luck With Your Project.

Paul..
