That's a request for a lot of information. I would suggest reading the Ball Python manual. There's some information there. You also have Dr. Seward's breeding video/DVD series. In a quick nutshell, I cool my animals when the weather changes. I don't allow them to drop below 70-72 at night and usually keep the DTH of about 82-85. In central Florida, it usually starts to cool around November. I introduce couples around the end of December. I keep them together until March. This year, I plan to keep them a bit longer as I think I missed some opportunities due to a warm winter.
Of course there's more, so keep researching and good luck!

The Ball Python Manual worked for me. Plus I read quite a few care sheets here and there on the internet. But for less than $10 with some cool pics, I would definantly get the Manual.
