For most people, these off season copulations are usually not successful. The reasons are simple. The keepers do not expect these and do not have proper support for the female. Many time the male has not been supported either. Both with food and with temps.
In nature, if the animals have been dormait, the males will become active about two weeks before the females.
So captive husbandry is a case of timing and yes it is. The recipe methods used here are method to breed a particular snake at a particular time.
If you support a snake with food and temps that it can choose, you know, give them choices, it will result in something different. What that different is, is a reflection of what you offer. Cheers
