Personally i don't start putting snakes together until April. and it's worked for me thus far

BUT! On January 30th i had a pair hookup, Now im a little skeptical about this breeding being a success yielding a valid clutch with fertile eggs... i really do HOPE it is... but it wouldn't surprise me if it were not.

I've had females breed and not give me one egg not even a slug and i've had females breed and they give me ALL slugs (even being bred to proven males)... and being that this will be the 1st year for both of these snakes so this irregular (irregular by MY norms anyway) mating concerns me just a little.

The initial goal was to hibernate them together in hopes that they would breed earlier than i usually breed my snakes. Now i'm on the east coast (NYC) and the temperatures were LOW when they bred (i think upper 20's low 30's)... so i'm still puzzled that they locked up.

Here's the pair: "Hybino" Male and 2x Het "Hybino" Female (Hypomelanistic-Lavender):
