>>I bred the 2 females last year without any brumation, and I am going to try that again this year. I am only planning on breeding 5 females if everything goes as planned. I know that fertility increases with brumation, but I really don't even have anywhere to cool them, since I live in a duplex house, and they already have the spare room, as their room. Hopefully things will work out as well as last year. I had a total of 21 eggs and of that, 19 hatched. If we purchase a home in the near future, I plan on having enough room to keep my ever growing collection, and also have a room to cool them. Good Luck with yours!!!! BTW what kind of pairings do you have planned for this year?

One of the main reasons I am brumating is to give myself a few months off from feeding 12 snakes...LOL
Nothing very spectacular but let's see...
male ghost het amel with female Snow: results should be approximately 50% snow het hypo and 50% anery het amel het hypo
Male cinnamon with female cinnamon (cinnamon= hypo guttata/emoryi)
This will produce Cinnamons.
There is a possibility they are both het amel (cream)
If both are het amel (cream) then results....
50% hypo (cinnamon) het amel (cream)
25% sunglow creamsicles
25% hypo (cinnamon)
male stripe creamsicle to female creamsicle: results..100% creamsicles het stripe
Male Creamsicle to female creamsicle: results....100% creamsicles
male ghost het amel to female amel: results...50% amel het ghost, 50% normal het snow het hypo
undecided on this last pair
male okeetee to female normal....They should produce some very nice normals.
