When is everybody starting this year??

I'm going to start my winter blizzard in November and start lining the males up mid to late Nov. My snakeroom is going to be nick named sub-zero:D

What about you guys?

We got our first cold snap today...assuming it stays I am looking late Oct/early Nov to start (just to see if there is any interest at that point)

Good Luck Everyone

I'm starting the gradual cooling as of tommorow. I think I will start pairing up on Thanksgiving....and not stop this year until I see eggs!

Already did ;), and already witnessed 2 locks :D

Start coolin maybe end of oct and start pairing in nov sometime... I have a few females that need some more weight before we begin and I might stall for a month or so... Not sure yet... its only couple hundred grams on one girl... actually less...

Going to start off by not cooling at all and pair my males with females around mid November

Starting? I gotta finish first! Still going from last season. :sweeet:

oh ... actually ... since I was just making a statement and not really giving out advice, I didn't think "hope this helps" was appropriate?

Is it something that I shouldn't be putting at the end of some of my posts? I'm sorry.

Nope, just giving you a hard time...just something I noticed one day reading your responses.

hey adam man cant wait to get that spider from ya on thursday. and hopefully be able to start my breeding this season.

Not starting til January. Want all my females to be as fat as possible. I may breed a couple females earlier as it is their first year or they are coming off a rest year so they are already nice and fat.

I think I'm maxed out on what I can put in my sig? :P

Use away! I just think that it's just a really polite thing to say when giving out advice ... I think it would be cool if everyone used it all the time ... then of course, I could take credit for it. :sweeet: (j/k)

haha. theres always room in you're sig.

hope this helps,

I have never stopped either, got albino eggs due to be laid tomorrow(or soon) and another girl had a pre lay shed on Sunday. Still some other snakes are locking as we speak.

I am an equal opportunity employer:P

November 15th -- The madness begins all over.:rolleye2::rolleye2:
I have 10 clutches still cooking and I may have a girl or 2 ovulate yet. I will be starting a month later than I did in 08 and ending my pairings May 1st. Best of luck to everyone in 09. :gj::D;)

Ugh - I have five girls I want to breed, maybe six, and only one for certain who I know who I'm pairing her with - and that's the same pairing I had for my possible het clown clutch last year.

The others I'm going - do I want to put the mojave, the pastel or the YB - or maybe the tiger - or the spider if he's up to weight with her?

I'm really stumped on who I want to pair with Pretzel (the blackback).

Probably will start pairing at the beginning of November, I want some more meals in my girls first!

I'll probably start mid Oct can't wait.

Probably start cooling early Nov, maybe a little later. Have one girl at 1300g and another at 1100g, want to get a little more weight on them so they can go this year.

Right there with you! I think (hope) my last girl is getting ready to ovulate! To think I started last October and have not had males with females in four months........

It's raining outside right now and I have four paired up tonight!

Im starting as soon as my Bel is out of qt, and everyone has had vet checks and fecals. Right now all my females are in the 1000-1200 range, so by the time I am ready to breed in a few months them they might all be ready.

November/December...

Once the last egg hatches, I will begin :)

This wouldn't by any chance include usage royalty fees would it :D


I am partial to using "Good Luck" :P


Its all good :gj:


As for cooling -- well, hell I haven't seen the heat tape kick on in months -- I'll start cracking the window at night in October and pairing in November like always - looks like some scattered showers and a low headed our way for the weekend will attempt to throw some together. I ain't got no schedule.

Same here!

Pastel x Normal! (locked)
Ghost X Normal! (Locked)
Spider x Pastel! (a lot of cuddle but no lock) same thing last year with him! He's scared! Women can be intimidating :D
:gj:

Its raining, so I think im gonna go pair up some right now!

Already started.....plus being in FL I really do not have a cool down until like March!

http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b2...s/100_3790.jpg

if my new cinnie girl (presently in QT) puts on some more weight, she's around 935g, I might be able to breed her by end of December beginning of January. that would be very exciting as it would be my first venture into breeding snakes. Not to hijack this thread, but does cooling down or not cooling down make a difference in breeding and clutch sizes? thanx.

good luck to all who are breeding this year.

Tonight at midnight my first males will be put with the females....OCT 1st !!! lets hope for some sexy little hatchlings this year...and some awesome crosses

Started about 4 years ago and haven't stopped...lol

Ill probably start in a month with the consistant pairings. ive had the pastel het clown breed a couple het females so far but thats it for early pairings. should be a good one for alot of people this season!!! GOOD LUCK EVERYONE:gj:

cheers-justin

Taking the year off...

....Already got a couple locks. :salute:
