Whne getting ready to breed, i have heard others say to bring them out of hybernation, how do we get them to hybernate and for how long, I have some books but they do not really explain it very well.
Thanks David
 
A lot of breeders stop feeding around end of oct or somethin near and leave the snakes for 2weeks to get food fully digested n pooed out then drop temps to around 55/60df and leave em changin water fortnightly and then bring them round in about late jan feb i think and slowly start feedin them up again.

This is my brumation table thing:

November 7 - Stop feeding

November 21 - Start slowly lowering temps down to room temp

Dec 1 - put snakes in small container each and put
those containers in a dark coupboard at 55-60F

Change the water once a week

Feb 30 - Take snakes out of cupboard and raise the temps to
room temp. Start to slowly raise the temps to 80F over
a week

March 7 - start feeding again


I hope this help. If anyone thinks the brumation table is not correct, coul they please tell me whats rong with it.

Cheers

Alex
