when do you guys usually start breeding?

so, what's the right answer?

I'll also add to that. The longer you keep snakes the more you come to realize there is no one solid, cut in stone "right answer" to just about anything. Certain basics like temps, humidity and so forth tend to be pretty much a given but the rest of it - well you have to learn how to gather information, apply to yourself and your snake and know what you can do and what you should wait and learn more about before you attempt it. It's pretty overwhelming at first.
