I don't think your snakes need any practice. Breeding comes naturally.lol
But, really. Is your pastel a male or a female? If it is a female I would go ahead and breed the normals. If your pastel is a male I would start to take into consideration how much weight can be gained by the female for the next breeding season. Some times a female can lose almost half her body weight by having a clutch of eggs. Some times they bounce right back, and some times they don't. If she doesn't bounce right back, you'll have to wait another year to breed her to your pastel. It's all about the health of your animals.
