Yea she ate just like two days ago. Right before she shed actually. I like to try and get a couple meals in them while breeding. She wouldnt take F/T like she usually does so I gave her a small live one and call it a day. I usually wait about 3-4 days after they eat to clean their cages. She was just a little messy. But she looks pretty big to me and its def not the food. Her cage is clean now. What do you guys think? She is a first timer. About how much longer do you think before eggs if she is prego??

well if she just ate 2 days before shedding, I hate to tell you but she is probably not gravid. In my experience 99% of female ball pythons will not eat once they have ovulated. Place the male back with her, if he locks up with her that will be your proof.

Throw that Bee back in with her to "test the waters". It can't hurt, she is looking good and that Bee you have in your second post is great looking! I've got my fingers crossed for you.

I have put him back in and she doesnt want anything to do with him. I threw in a male pastel to and nothing. She has been wandering around alot mostly on the cool side. No flipping or laying on back yet but im keeping my fingers crossed lol. Thanks for the input.
