How many people hibernate and how many don't???????

Colorfulcorns Aug 04, 2005 10:45 AM

If you hibernate: How big are your clutches? What's the fertility percentage? Do your snakes double clutch?

If you don't hibernate, All the same questions above plus:
When do the snakes breed? Do the snakes lay during the normal breed season?

I just want to know if there is a big difference between hibernating and not. I want to know if it affects the snakes, if you don't hiber?

If you have any other info please post it.

I don't think I will be hibernating my snakes. I am sure that I will keep the temps cooler though, maybe drop them down to the high 60's low 70's? If you concider that hibernating then sure, I will be hibernating
