I live in FL so cooling is really not a issue at all bc of my ac etc. I actually had my vanilla and normal female pairing up till about a month ago. She just got out of her prelay shed, so I'm waiting for the 30 days for the eggs.

My distributor says that a good marker is Thanksgiving. Thats when he starts his pairing. I started late this year (I started pairing in Jan.), about 3 weeks ago I had my first clutch ever which were het ghosts. Depending on where you live, your temperature conditions inside your house, you might be able to breed sooner or later than the actual breeding season. Just depends.

I did do the three days on and three days off. If they were locking up continuely passing the 3 days on, I would keep them in there until it looked like there was no more interest. Good luck
