You get hatchlings and matings at different times of the year, even in the dead of winter?

I tried the high heat source and very cool side as best I could with an adult pair of Pyros and they have constantly for the most part chosen to stay coiled in the coolest part of their cage. I figure I'm doing something wrong and will still try to work on that. A curious thing I see them do from time to time. more so in the fall, is to have the top part of their bodies out of a hide(six to 8" and stare straight up like a getula would looking to be fed on a cage with a screen cover but these guys are in a 3' Vision with a solid top.

Any opinions as to what that might mean?

Maybe they are looking to move up to a higher area of a rock with warmer temps than I am providing? The available hotspot is well over 100 degrees cool spotlow 60s to high 50s .

Sometimes I think the kid with two pet snakes has something that those of us with 50 to 200 lost a long time ago.
