Its interesting to see all the different methods used.

A many years ago I stopped brumating, and just let the daylight changes, and slight night time temp drops handle it for me.

with this method, I have bred and had near perfect fertility with:
Variable kingsnakes
Cal kings
Bullsnakes
Emory rats
Ball pythons
Kenyan sand boas
Blue beauty snakes
Cave dwelling ratsnakes
Green bush ratsnakes
trinket snakes
texas ratsnakes
carpet pythons
macklotts pythons

BUT.... it did NOT work so well for Elaphe climacophora, they only bred for me with a 2-3 month formal brumation down into the high 50's and low 60's.
