Perhaps a little more info would help...

I have no desire to produce an abundance of fertile eggs next year. I want to keep my snakes communal stlye and see some eggs while doing it. My goal is to get one good clutch out of each female, keep in mind they will be together all year.

I don't want to spend a bunch of money. I am more concerned with keeping my snakes healthy. If I can get a few clutches of healthy eggs, I will be happy. From what I have read, only a brief time is needed for brumation, obviously the longer the better. With that being said, how long is brief?

Snakes are

Corns

Hondurans

Thayeri

I am certain that I can maintain an average of 50 degrees in Jan and Feb... The other months will be out of my control. The house I am renting has poor insulation. So I can insulate the cages but the house I can't control.
