I fed my males and females last about a month ago.

I left the heat in the mid-80's and heat tape on in all the cages for 2 weeks after that last feeding.

After the 2 weeks I turned the heat tape off in all cages (both male and female). I also set daytime temps to 79 and nighttime temps to 73.

I left these conditions for 2 weeks.

I have just introduced the males to the females.

In my breeding cages I have overhead heating panels. Should I let this heat go on at all during the breeding season? Maybe in unison with the lighting? I've heard all sorts of advice, but want to get some opinions here. I've also set the lighting to about 8 hours/day.

By the way my Anery het snow x Anery het snow have already been witnessed coupling.

I do plan to feed the males every 3 weeks or so until they refuse food. I will separate them for a few days when I do this.

Thanks for the advice.
