I don't think that is called for especially since you were seeking help. This is a public forum and wihtout using profanity or inappropriate comments, most people are welcome to share their opinions on any issue. If someone else reads this and realizes how big of a reaction it stirred up with some of the more experienced hobbyists, then it may alarm some newer folks to this hobby & prevent others from making the same mistakes as you.
With that being said, most N.American colubrids do not need to brumate to reproduce. In fact, some breeders have just as good success rates at breedings without brumation compared with using a cool down period. There are exceptions, such as Eastern Indigos which apparantly remain a mystery for most breeders.
Keep your chin up and hope for the best. If anyone sounds overly upset its because THEY CARE! No need to backlash, it might just deter someone from providing you with additional quality advice. ----- www.members.aol.com/northeastsnakes
