Hi,

There is a ton of really good info online these days and in books and videos as well. I like the info on my website and recommend you check it out. Maybe you'll get some answers here to your direct question on dates.. I'd be surprised if everybody agrees! Just look at the different times of the year people are posting pics of baby Surinames and other BCC.
.
Breeding these boas is as much of an art as a science and there is no clear-cut formula or recipe. One thing I will tell you is that with the BCC especially you will improve your success by planning for breeding and ovulation instead of just putting the adults together every once in a while and seeing what happens. So I think you're on the right track wanting the 'when' info.. just don't let what someone else does (or says) substitute for closely watching and managing your own boas.
