[greco2k6]

Thanks so much for this vid! It's my first time breeding and I'm so nervous but now I know what to do! :-D

[Nubias]

Good data thanx....!

[MrRandRAuto]

March: keep paring till she sheds :)

[spenreptiles]

Very helpful!

[wygydude]

Hey I dont know if I missed something but arn't Ball Pythons cage's HST is only suppose to be in the mid 80's max? And cool side at least low70's?

[PGballsandboas]

heyy this video has helped alot thanks soo much :) liked and subd

[oooMARTYNooo]

Is it a bad thing if u keep the eggs with the mother if they are located right above the heat tape? Should the eggs be on the cooler side of the enclosure? I have a rack with 4-41 quart tubs from boaphile.com. I have 2 strips of heat tape on one side. Each strip has it's own separate plug, so I can have only one running if I want to.

[SGExotics]

@oooMARTYNooo The mother is definitely capable of incubating her own eggs.. I personally do not use this method, nor recommend it, as i prefer a 100% hatch rate..

[QuietTempest]

@oooMARTYNooo

The moms will lay where in an area that they feel is ideal for brooding. Heat isn't as much an issue here as humidity. Many keepers have difficulty keeping humidity in a comfortable range for their pythons. Most balls can and will tolerate low humidity levels but eggs can desiccate if the humidity in the female's enclosure isn't kept above 60%. Humidity will be closer to 100% within her coils. I've maternally incubated all of my clutches and haven't lost a single egg this way.

[TheSilverFox91]

how much is an incubator or how can i make 1?

[dcshows1]

thanks so much for info. it really helped

[ambitionsskyyyy]

@Supersnakes23 why would you wanna do that dumbass

[ballpython1995]

right now i hav a male and hes 5munths old born june18 2010 and im looking forward to getting a female for him in 2011 season

also my 20 gal tank stayes at 80deg in day and around 75at night

i use two bulbs at same time a 60w on warm side and 50w on cool side i keep water dish on warm side to help humidity and a hide on both sides with the tropical terrarium soil that u mix woth 3l of water and its a dirt brick and im wpndering if its good i should have it at least 90deg in day 80deg at night

[ballpython1995]

so pairing starts september 1st put them in with femal for 5days straight after the lock then 2day break in their own cages then keep doing that everyweek till u see swelling(ovulation) then stop pairing and leave her alone but still (try ) to feed every week? and eggs come out in may

[B1GD1Z]

We're seeing a 10x close up of a snake's cock and I can't make a joke? Grow down. Loosen that top button on your collar. Besides; Dodge trucks have got a Hemipenis too... Uh Oh I just cracked another.

[B1GD1Z]

Nice pic of the snake's DICK. lol

[v955e]

@B1GD1Z its called a hemipenis. grow up.

[TheSilverFox91]

@v955e THANK YOU

[Need2xcell]

Awesome tutorial - couldnt be said easier, im new to the bp breeding and just started building my set of bp, hopefully by next year ill have it down packed to were my snakes start breeding... thanks for the info... much props 5 stars!

[pimpmix1]

Would I need to separate my snakes after ovulation because I have 1 male living with 2 females in a 60g enclosure

[SGExotics]

@pimpmix1 You should not be housing snakes together!! I highly recommend housing each adult ball python in their own 41 qt sterilite bin.

[BurmBreeder1]

When is the female going to lay her eggs and how long until the eggs hatch?

[MrStupidcracker]

Are you talking about re-matching up the same pair of ball pythons each time or are you talking about re-pairing the male to different females? Also, how do you know for sure when the male successfully locks up with a female? Thanks in advance.

[bleedingxhearts2]

do you take economics with a ruzas this quarter

[SGExotics]

@bleedingxhearts2 what?

[bleedingxhearts2]

@SGExotics guess thats a no you sound like a kid in my economics class this quarter

[kevbot31]

How much do those thermometers cost and what is a cheap way to incubate the eggs

[ifulike2laugh]

@kevbot31 the cheap way is to leave them wit the mother..

[austinrouse12]

ok i use heat tape so all of the tape is the hot spot so is that what i should set the temp gage to?

[19SamC91]

good vid pal

[mikelorenz69]

thanks bud i am going to try this next year and se how it goes for me

[jaks41]

one of the best breeding vids i ever seen great job

[1417mdiaz]

This video is great!... i had to favorite it... its a huge help being this is my first season for breeding.. thanks a lot

[BikinBP26]

nvm it was my comp. thansk so much man i cant wait to breed for the first time this year! this really helped alot. thank you again for this great video!

[chanfolio]

how many times a year have eggs the female ball pyhton thanks for the info my friend

[jp3515]

HELL YA SOME METALLICA!!!! bout time i heard some classic thrash assosiated with some sexy snakes! :D

[codfreak811]

yeah, i was wodering the same thing. can you leave the eggs with the her?

[SGExotics]

Yes you can leave a mother with her eggs. That is called "maternal incubation". The mother can do a very good job of incubating her own eggs, but by doing this you have less of a chance of a perfect hatch rate than you would with artificial incubation..

~brandon

[codfreak811]

ok, thanks. i wont be breeding for a while though because im new at snakes.

[zacman199]

can you leave the eggs with her?

[XamReptiles]

Great video, thanks.

[JOEY69993]

okay so when a female ovulates she looks as fat as a 2 litter pop bottle??

[SGExotics]

No not that fat... But but her mid section will swell a lot!

~Brandon

[JOEY69993]

okay thanks man

[JOEY69993]

song is ride the lightning by metallica

[guitarmedusa]

cool vid wat kind of ball pythons do u have?

[Snakes4Life21]

whats the naem of the song?

[gerijuana]

Very Good Video,Awesome Info 5*

[CaterpillarGiraffe]

I don't think you could put it anymore straight forward! Truly breeding for dummies :P

Great video

[SGExotics]

LOL I tried to make it as simple as possible haha

Thanks,

~Brandon

[SimpsonReptilesTV]

Hey Brandon, I am getting 5 Bp Norm Girls Tuesday this would make it 6 Norm Girls and 1 Cinni Boy. I am wondering what male you think I should get.

I am thinking to get another Cinni to make chances higher for Super Cinni but also leaning towards Mojave to make some sick Savannah's? What do you think I should go with?

Daniel

[SGExotics]

Hmm... I would say go with a mojave... Because if you dont end up getting any double sired clutches atleast you will get more than one morph...

~Brandon

[albinoburm]

Wow, you had some time on your hands to make this one Brandon LOL. Good job! I personally do my lighting and temp drops a little differently, but there are always slight differences in the way we all breed our snakes. Sometimes people need to make small "tweeks" with things to get the desired affect. Take Care, Brandon

[SGExotics]

Yea! LOL I Had nothing else to do... And yea, we all tweak it a bit as we're not all in the same conditions..

And I know you probably wanna see an update of the burm LOL And i havent made one.. But im waiting til xmas when i get my new Sony cx100 HD camcorder to make a nice HD update on him...

[ObsessedWithSerpents]

best bp breeding bid on YouTube

[SGExotics]

Thanks!

[reptileluver123]

why did you leave dbd reptiles??? and start a new channel

[SGExotics]

Well because i hadn't been going by the name DBD Reptiles for a while, and i wanted to start a fresh new channel..

[geckokid94]

very nice vid

[jxz107]

nice vid it was rather long but it was very informative. i didnt know it took so long from birth to creating new individuals

[SGExotics]

Yea, i wanted to pack as much info into this video as i could... And yea, its a pretty long process, but its all worth it in the end..

[elcokito97]

thnks for the info sweet snakes

[OneLoveReptiles]

thx man
