you can use the typical colubrid recipe for black milks. Brumate them from November through the end of February, feed like crazy and then pair them up after the female sheds.

Mine usually breed after the 2nd shed for the female. Also, I brumate mine in the mid 60s and they stay fairly active during that time, but it all seems to work regardless. You may not even need to brumate them, but I do anyway.

Good luck

Dave
