i'm so happy
my friend just baught a ball python and now we are going to start breeding my female with his male. and we are going to spilt the babies after they hatch and make a profit but i don't want to sell all of them local.

i need ideas for selling the babies

Good luck, there are plenty of ways to advertise, Classifieds being one.

Or you can just hold them back for future breeding.

watch them both be male.

my snake is a female because i got it probed and the people my friend baught it from probed his and it was a male.

thanks
i planned on keeping at least one of the babies for the future

but now i have another decision to make
should i incubate the eggs when or if it happens or let the female do it naturally?

You'll have better hatch rate (statistically speaking) if you incubate artificially. A "hovabator" (thermal model) is one of the cheapest ways to go for artificial incubation (you'll pay around $50 for this). Unfortunately, your plans to "make a profit" are very unlikely if you are working with normal ball pythons. In fact, you may find that you will have to literally give you babies away. However, the experience will be very valuable should you choose to work with more expensive "morphs" in the future. I've got a few clutches of ball pythons due this year. If you have any questions, I'd be happy to offer any suggestions.
