too late to cycle Spotteds?

[Cruciform]

With our furnace malfunctioning most of the winter (just got a new one 2 week ago), it was a fight just to keep all my snakes healthy. And it worked out well, not one incidence of illness among the bunch.

But the only snakes that I could take the chance to cycle were the colubrids.

Is it too late to try and cycle the spotteds into breeding? I'd really like to see some hatchlings this year :) I didn't want to risk turning down the heat and having the furnace die and leave them with an unacceptable level of heat to deal with the ambient drop.

Mike, they breed when temperatures drop in the evening. Most of mine are gravid right now and in the inverted position a sure sign of gravid Pythons. I'm looking forward to producing my striped line this year, along with normals and childrens
The breeding season extends most of the winter but is almost over, and eggs will be coming soon for many breeders.(including me)
I'd put them together right away, and maybe stick them outside the herp room at night, where the temp drops into the 70's.
Mist them down heavily when you put them together at night prior to the temp dropping, and put them back to normal mid 80's in the day..
Do this for the next few weeks.
They generally copulate when the temp is falling and the humidity is rising...
If its going to happen you'll put them together in the evening and find them hooked up in the morning. It might happen right away or take a few weeks.

Thanks :)

A slim chance is better than none :)
At least with 2 females there might be a slightly better chance for me to get at least one clutch.
