Mating in Anaconda's occurs during the Rainy season during April & May. Males identify receptive females and then copulate with them. Courting & Mating occurs almost exclusively in water and may sometimes happen on Land. More than one male may try to mate with a female. Males wrap around the females and try to mate with them. During this frenzy, they wrap around to form groups which are called "Breeding Balls" where multiple males try to mate with the female in the group. The group could stay in position for 2 to 4 weeks until the copulation eventually happens.
Anacondas at times form breeding balls (also Known as mating balls) in these many males swarm over a single female. In an attempt to mate up to a dozen or more male anacondas may wrap themselves around a much larger female, in an attempt to insert their sex organs into the female's cloaca. The males scratch with tiny hind leg spurs to stimulate the female to mate. A successful male will leave a waxy plug in the female's cloaca blocking other males from mating. The anaconda breeding balls take place in shallow water and can last for weeks. Females will also breed with single males. Anacondas give birth to live young. Anacondas are ovoviviparous, this means they retain the eggs internally until the young hatch. While they carry developing eggs inside, females typically do not eat. The gestation period for anacondas is about six to seven months. The number of young born can range from 20 to 100.

Anacondas communicate, either to intimidate potential predators or to mate. These animals hiss loudly in order to scare off predators. In mating, female anacondas release pheromones to attract the males, and the males in turn rubs their chins and cloacal spurs along the back of the female's body to initiate copulation.
Male Anacondas will make a loud growl after fighting another male to get with a female Anaconda. This is the way these type of snakes mate. They are very vicious and powerful creatures. They fight with each other by slamming their body against one another, and the one who gives up loses.
