will the 2 snakes start trying to make baby or no?

Can not chose so majority wins.I already have a corn and is great and my first snake was a ball python and it die a few days after I brought it home.So I am kind of reluctant to try ball pythons again what should I chose
I have a corn already so I am not that inexprienced

I brought a royal python the other day- it was meant to be a granite royal python but it doesn t look like one- it s belly has a yellow tint to it- and his sides are yellowish and he has a streak of yellow by his eye. Could it be a yellow belly royal or not?
Here are some pictures- but the camera doesn t show the pictures well and the flash made the yellow- i dont t know if the pics will work!!!!!!!

I live in the desert and now that it s summer- the house is heating up. Hubby and I have lived in the heat our whole lives so we keep it up around 86-87 (when it s 115 outside- that s not as bad as it sounds). We really don t want to raise the whole house temperature- but we are concerned about the ball python. His cool side is right at 87 and he s nearly always on that side- so I think he may be a little warm. He is otherwise eating perfectly fine- shedding fully- active; he actually looks and acts great. We have a hide log and a bathing water dish on both sides of the tank so it s not the accessories that keeps him on one side. He has an under tank heater on the hot side which I found he much preferred during the winter- and the cats can t knock it off. All the python care sheets show that his cool side shouldnt be over 82- so I m concerned of the long term of effects of him not being able to cool that low. Any suggestions from python breeders/keepers would be great. Thanks!
