I'm not sure how reliable it is but it made sense to me and i checked multiple times on the same snakes and it never changed from clicking to not clicking or vise versa
Might wanna do some research on if it's safe with adults and or royals first though.
Ooo that sounds rude!  |

The female would need to be DOUBLE the weight she is now before even considering to breed. Just for that reason alone they should never be put together.
You not only have to consider her health but also the upkeep and health of the babies that could potentially come along. Until you have the basic kit for breeding putting them together is a massive NO, incubators, vermiculite, tubs and heating for the babies, a pile of food, its a massive expense and you will almost certainly end up out of pocket uness your breeding on a massive scale or for high end morphs.
If its a sexing excercise a few quid to get them probed is a far quicker and cheaper process. |

How big are they and old are they first?
Please don't take this the wrong way, but if you don't know the sexes, I'm guessing you probably won't know much about breeding.
If the female is too small, you could end up with very huge vet bills, or in the worst case, a dead snake. |

If you placed them in the same rub and there the same sex I'd class them as gay lol
Ain't there no where around you that can probe them for you ?
There's no harm in putting them together and monitoring them for a While And seeing if you get a lock
Edit; just out of interested why do you want to put them together now ? I thought breeding starts in nov after
The cooling that's if you cool |
