Jeff Ronnie, the Boaphile, breeds his boas w/out cooling. We are attempting to breed a pair of Hogs this way but so far there has been no mating activity
We introduced the male to the female about three weeks ago and nothing happened so after three days of nothing we seperated them and fed the female a small meal. She went into a shed cycle the day after seperating so we thought this may have caused the males lack of interest. I introduced them last night after her shed and no breeding activity was witnessed. He will get a few more days to show breeding activity then we will try another male. It is still very early and according to the Boaphile the "window of opprotunity" is huge. I'll keep you posted on our progress.
Have you bred BCI's without cooling them? I was wondering if anyone else has had succuess this way? If so I would love to hear about it!
