Been doing the same thing for over 10 years simply because my apt. is too small to "give up an area" for cooling. My apt. may get in the 50's occasionally, but rarely goes below 60. I offer food about 2-3 times a month during the cold weather season. I do however maintain a strict photo-period. When the sun sets outside, all my lights go out by 6 p.m. , and so on, save for one desk lamp in main room area. I'm so used to this it has become normal routine.
The kitchen lights are out also by 6 p.m. Start putting male and females together in April. If female not receptive, I'll try again in a few days. My campbells are usually first to go, while the hondos take a while. They seem more inclined in May, as are my sinaloans. After copulation observed several times, females get fed more often.
Only my ball pythons and spotted have bottom heat, controlled by an on-off thermostat and are fed weekly.
This works well for me, so why change things.
Mike
