thats quite a list Jimmy.
I brumated 17 snakes on the 15. I had one corn that was shedding, so he will start tomorrow, one king that had a late meal that will brumate next week, and then the two milks that I just got that have an occassional sneeze. I won't brumat those two until they are fit to do so. I also have two snakes that I am not brumating because they did not put on enough weight in my opinion. Thats a total of 23 snakes to breed next spring (if they are all healthy enough, of course). I am excited because I will be producing my first bloodreds in the spring!

Good luck with the bloodreds and everything else.
I'm already looking forward to seeing egg pics in the spring and hatchling pics in the summer!!!

I was going to put mine down today. UNFORTUNATELY the weather in MO is retarded. I was SO happy because the weather finally dropped steadily into the 40's/50's and the closet was finally getting cool enough. I woke up Friday morning to 80 degree weather and it isn't over yet. Tomorrow I am going to Wal-Mart to buy like 10 of those reusable gel ice packs that go in kids lunch boxes. I will just keep those in the closet until the temps get better.
