My first season I used a cooling period. The next couple of seasons I just let the natural temp change cool the room. That was only a couple of degrees different. I haven't noticed a change in breeding activity. I know I don't worry about RI now. What keeps them healthy is what is best IMO. As far as incubation temps, some reptiles have sexes that are temp based but BP's aren't one of them.
thanks for the reply , so when u say the natural temp change your talking about the temps out side right? so does that mean you could only breed once per year using this way ? or is it only possible to breed once per year regardless ?
