Personally, my first lock was last year at around Christmas and I had eggs on 5/15.

I didn't use any tricks to get my snakes to breed, but if you're having trouble getting them to copulate, then you can either pop a sperm plug off of a different breedable male, put different male's shed in with the snakes you're trying to get to breed or mist them. If you're going to try one of these, you may as well try them all.

As far as cooling goes, many breeders don't even worry about it. Usually in the winter the temperature of the room will drop so that you don't need a night drop. If you insist though, i would probably cool both males and females.

hope this helps
I've only paired them twice now, my biggest girl completely squished my fire male. He's almost 800 grams now, but she's just under 3000 grams! it was quite the sight haha..

My fire is in shed now, so when he sheds I'll start putting the sheds in with the females.

Anyone else have any input or has it all been said?

Thanks
