Stu my temps are consistently among the earliest of my snakes to lay. My schedules is up Feb 1 and I usually have temp eggs by March 15. If I want them to be fertile I introduce the pairs as soon as they emerge. Often times I will even hibernate the pairs together which I think is fairly critical if you have a particularly warm winter.
