I would get 2 tubs each with 3-4 females and 1 male. Should work well for ya, if you get to many, you could freeze or sell to a petstore (or trade for another female). If you don't get enough, which would be odd, do another tub. How old are your snakes? if they are babies I say you sar doing good, if there subs or adults I think you need to space a little, like 7-10 days. sounds like there still small on pups and such. Good luck! I am also going to be breeding rats for my balls. I will (HOPEFULLY) have 10 or more balls in a couple years, I am starting over with 4. (sold all and starting from scratch with 4 when I can afford to lol I will be breeding)
