Ovulation

[Chambers san]

Will ovulation only occur in the presence of a male snake, or can it happen at any given time after the snake has reached maturity?

Ok not 100% sure but I think that a male has to be with the female. If I am wrong someone will let me know. Mabey some one else can shed some more light on this for the both of us.

Well anything is possible ;D, but here is the normal.

Courting by the male is what causes the females to ovulate in the first place. A male will "ride" the female around everywhere, and "squeeze" her in short increments. The male will also use his spurs and actually dig in to the female. These two courting actions are what normally cause the female to go into ovulation.
