How do i know of they are copulating or hanging out?

My male and female are laying together underneath the newspaper for a hide. they have been coiled up for a few days, but now they stopped moving so much...here is a picture....im wondering if they are actually copulating or just hanging out. sorry if this is a stupid question!!!

If they're not "doin' it" it's not for lack of effort on the part of your male.

You should be having babies this summer, sooner even if this is not the first go round for them.

HA!! What a newbie.

This is NOTHING compared with seeing the babies your snake just had.

Let's hope it all works out. Make sure she has proper basking temps.

It looks like copulation. Lift their tails and if they are co-joined then you'll know for sure.

You want to have a hot spot in the 95-98 F range. She'll move her body in and out to keep it regulated. Make sure you don't heat the entire enclosure to that heat. They still need to have a cool end as well.
