Have you tried giving them more heat?

My boas like to be warm and toasty during breeding season. I keep a hot spot that's 92 degrees. The cool end of the cage stays between 81 to 84 degrees. I keep the snake room at 80 degrees during the day and 75 degrees at night. I found that if the room temps got down to 70 degrees, they'd stop breeding. When the room temps got down to 70 degrees, the cool end of the cage got down to 78 degrees. Apparently 78 degrees is too cold for my boas. They'd just stay on the hot spot.

I've had 4 boas ovulate, so far, this year. So, higher temps seems to work for me.

Anyway, that's the way my boas perfer to be kept.
