Welcome to the forum!,...
Well, here in Florida where I am, my Latin milks typically don't start wanting to breed until mid April into May. Others people I know in my area have similar results too, but it can vary in different parts of the country considerably, and really depends on many different factors. If you are up north(or anywhere for that matter) and start a very cool brumation early on, they can be brought out in March, eat good, then breed earlier than many others would. Mine usually go about their second spring shed, but have had some take until their third before breeding. I am waiting on several females as we speak to have their second shed in a couple more days and breed..LOL!. My kings are the same way. The first snakes to breed for me seem to be my corns. Also the photo-period of lighting you use will play an important roll in their breeding cycle in conjuction with temps.
BTW, can you share some pics of your stuarti and polyzona?. I'm sure many here would love to see them..
