mid way through May and I'm curious to know who's still mating their pythons?

I have a couple that are still mating, the females haven't any folicles yet and seem to be keen to mate with the males, so I thought I'd carry it on a while longer.

My room humidity is still in the 80/90%'s, temps are obviously very hot now though.

Two of the three girls I'm mating this year have ovulated, but the third one hasn't yet so the male's still going in with her.

I'm rubbish at feeling follicles, especially on the bigger girls - so I'm just going to keep trying the male until she ovulates. I've seen them locked plenty of times over the last few months though, so I'm just HOPING that I get lots of nice eggs out of it.

I've just stuck my pastel back in with 1 of the bigger girls, I've seen her locked a couple of times but still no folickles or ovu. I'll keep the pastel in there this week and then give the mojo a change (will be his first try Very Happy

a few of mine will still breed if given the chance but they dont seem to be 'going' Crying or Very sad

i wonder if pairing up at this time of the season when ive got a 14-10 light cycle and warm temps is just giving my males an excuse for casual sex? Laughing

I'm mating a pair of normals at the moment - The female has HUGE follicles but no signs of ovulating Mad

- the male is still going in every 2-3 days - they hook up every time! so fingers crossed she'll blow soon Wink
