To late for brumation?

I am getting a new female for breeding this year, and I have not gotten her yet because of terrible weather conditions on both sides of the process. So when i get her is it to late to put her into the cold? (and yes i know that you don't NEED to brumate to breed)
 
No. But I wouldn't if I was you. You only want to brumate if you're 100% confident that you have a healthy snake on your hands.

And getting a new snake its best get her started in your care when you get her. If you feel she's ready to breed, then just give it a go w/o brumation. Just better to wait and make sure she's healthy and established in your care than to risk anything.
 
she's proven, and from the pics, she looks ok. But, yep, I will take that into consideration and probably not brumate then.
 
I agree with BAH. I'll add though that snakes can breed quite successfully without brumation as well. All my breedings produced fertile clutches last year without brumation.
