Hi
im a newbe and posted this in the kingsnake forum, the only reply i got was ( for those in the USA , Slough = Shed ).

Here is my original post, and could anyone help with some information please.

i was wondering if any one has kings fresh from brumation that go strait into a slough cycle, also has it affected the normal breeding timescale process.
the reason for the question is that out of 10 pairs 15 have gone strait into a slough cycle after a normal 3 month brumation. ie 2 week intro (slow temp and light drop). 3 months at 54 brumating, then a 2 week outro (slow rise in temp and light).
nothing has changed from any other years brumation.
do i carry on as normal and disregaurd this first shed and wait for the females to second slough then use that as the intro cue for the pairings.

PDC.
