pet stores, and reptile swaps. I think I figured it out. The bowls that are smooth on the bottom typically do not get mold, but the ones with a corse bottom have tiny crevices for the mold to grow.
That really depends on what's done after she's done laying. If she maternally incubates (which most breeders don't allow) she'll refuse food for quite some time... Artificial incubation of her eggs should free her up to get back on a normal feeding schedule in no time... How long depends on the snake, I guess. Whenever she accepts the meal, I'd imagine.
When do you feed her again now and how soon will you start to bulk her up. By her being 10 years old now ... what will you eventually do with her ... just breed her til she dies?
Being that ball pythons live for 20 to 30, sometimes 40 years, she's a long way off from the end of her life... And will breed as long as she is well enough to do so. I'd imagine most breeders eventually retire their females... I see a lot of breeder females for sale at discounted prices... She'll become a well-loved and well-cared-for pet :)

I use the same bowls you do with unprinted paper, and I always get mold growth underneath the bowl. How do YOU avoid that?
