>>I've had success with them producing the last couple years after a 2.5 to 3 month brumation at 55-60 degrees. After coming out of brumation, warming up and feeding, I put them together after the females first post brumation shed. Starting 4 or 5 days after her first shed I put them together for 24 to 48 hours, seperate them for 4 or 5 days and repeat this 4 to 5 times or until she appears gravid. They lay VERY large eggs and small number clutches. Hope this helps and good luck. Randy W.

Randy, great photo.

Sounds like a GPR clutch. Any chance you measured the egg length/width?

Those are great snakes and look forward to getting back into them in a few years.
