Terry,



I agree that it's not conventional wisdom. I also agree that living in Cleveland, you're going to get temperature and light fluctuations that are different in the summer than in the winter.



Having said this, Doug Matuszak (The Boa Basement) is one of the local breeders who feeds his Hondurans throughout the winter. You might want to send him an e-mail with your specific questions - this may add to the "Hondo Database" of knowledge.



I'd also like to point out that I brumate my Hondurans with my other colubrids - I figure "if it ain't broke, don't fix it." But I see Doug's point in getting as much size on his snakes as he can. In the past few years he has produced some really nice stuff.



Tim
