    should i raise my temps ?

    ok so one of my females is getting very close to ovulation she shed almost a week ago and im certain its comming any day. my question is should I go ahead and start to bring my temps back up now or should I wait? also if I just bump my temps back up to the norm will my other snakes continue to breed or should I raise them slowly? thanks everyone.

    Re: should i raise my temps ?

    i dont lower my temps at all. given this is my first year, but there are many of the "larger breeders" who lower tems and some that dont... when talking to some at the shows i attend they seem to have equal hatching rates even if they dont drop the temps.


    if you cant afford to take care of it, dont get it

    A lot of people now in the breeding industry are becoming firm believes in Barometric pressure, to spur breedings. Since, that is one element we cannot control in our environments we create for them. So if it is stormy or rainy, they snakes should be locking
