Thankyou for the insight into your experiences with longissimus, I wish you well with your breeding project with them. I asked really because I had heard that the hatchlings were little so and so's to get started, although i guess if your buying from a reputable breeder this is not a problem, but maybe when you produce your own. Although like i mentioned earlier my experiences with them were many years ago, which was when i did most of my research.

Temperature wise here the UK, we are experiencing yet another really mild winter, a lot of breeders are expressing concerns about not being able to get the animals cold enough for any length of time. Some are considering modifying fridges for brumation especially so for the european species and like you mention the fox snakes.

I guess every country has certain problems to over come for the species we hold dear to our hearts, whether it be brumation temps, summer heat, humidity.
