Hi everyone!

So this will be my first year trying to breed. I decided a while ago that I wasn't going to change the temps at all to get things started as I've read that a lot of people haven't changed anything and have had successful seasons. But I was talking to a breeder yesterday and mentioned to him that this was my plan, and he was saying that although he's heard this too, he has always lowered the heat at night and continues to do so because this is what works for him. Has anyone tried both ways and found one way to work better than the other? Or maybe you found that both work equally as well. I was told that if I do decide to lower the heat, that I can hook up a timer to the thermostat so I don't have to be the one to be constantly adjusting the temps every night/morning. How would I go about doing that?

I'm only going to be pairing one set of bps this year, and I know it's not a sure thing that the female will actually lay, but I'd like to help her out as much as possible to at least try and increase my chances. I'm really hoping for a BEL
