I only drop the temps 4 degrees at the most. The biggest thing that I do is control the light cycle. I tape newspaper over 3/4 of the females enclosure to make it much darker. I also keep the window blinds mostly closed. I don't turn on any lights at night, but instead I use a flashlight at night to check on them. I've had boas breed each year for 11 years now. I used to start introduction right at the beginning of Sept, but I've been waiting now until mid Oct. or beginning of Nov., since the season light cycle naturally changes here.

Here's some past breeding pics.
