Hi everyone - I'm about to bring my hogs out of brumation (they've been down since December) and was wondering when to introduce males to females.

I was planning on feeding heavily until the females first shed and then pairing up after that, but a lcoal breeder mentioned that a female hogs first shed after brumation is typically their pre-lay shed. I haven't experienced this in other colubrids I breed and wanted to check with the experts to make sure I wasn't missing something with the hogs

Thanks for any advice.
Regards, Ryan
