Breeding seasons

A

Adam & Eve

Gotta love those herps
When are corns supposed to be bred? I've heard that there were up to 3 seasons / year... Are there specific dates?

Thanks!
 
Mostly in the spring.

That doesn't mean that it can't happen at other times, but spring is the most common. Many lizards are breedable multiple times in a given year, but snakes are a little different.
 
Seems to depend on where you are in the world, but mine (in the UK) mate between March and June, with eggs being laid June-August. So I have only the one breeding season, but it lasts a few months and one female can produce two clutches in that space of time (although not all Corns double-clutch, no matter how often they've mated).
 
I stagger my breeding year so that I don't get inundated with tons of hatchlings at once and this means that mating occurs anywhere from January till around August although less likely in the latter months
