I first bred balls in 06. I had 2 normals and they had a clutch of 7 eggs. I held back 2 females and sold the rest to friends and a local pet store. I was so excited I decided to add to my collection. I purchased some hatchlings a female spider, a male pastel,a pair of mojaves, a pair of het pieds and a 2000 g female in summer of 06. In 07 my female that bred in 06 decided to take the year off and the 2000g female didn't take either. I was disappointed No clutches for me in 07. 
. Well this year has been a big suprise. My girl that laid in 06 layed 9 eggs due May 20th, my spider is bursting at the seams ready to lay any day now, one of my 06 holdback normals is about to bust and I bought a big 2700g normal in October that is going through her prelay shed now. Four of the five girls I had up to size are going to give me eggs this year!!! Next year my mojo girl and het pied will easily be big enough. I know I've been rambling on, but I don't have "snake friends" that get excited about this like I do. I just had to share my excitment with someone....This is too fun!!

Great odds,and you are right this is fun.Of all the snakes I have bred over the years the ball pythons are the most interesting to watch through the process.Terry
I have snake friends and when they don't answer, which luckily for me doesn't happen all that often, I'm bursting with energy until they call me back. Cograts on the hopefully good year for you.
