Breeding Year round?

To address the issue of 'listening' to your snakes. I think that advice is dead-on. If I have a girl who doesn't seem like she wants to go on the first shift, I push her back to the second. I have a few girls who refuse to be 'scheduled', but the majority go when you expect them to as long as you keep conditions just right.

Hope it helps.

Cheers,
Kat

Well we are in Virginia. We were thinking of starting to cool them down in June. Thats when the QT is up. We actually have a mini fridge available to use as an incubator since it will take a while to get the big freezer over here. The small mini fridge will hold at least 2 clutches and is not heavy.

Question: Is it absolutely necessary to strip the mini fridge of all the motor and freon? Its not heavy and we can leave it unplugged. Any ill effects to keeping the freon and motor intact?

If the freon was to leak that may cause a problem.
