I use certain dates to brumate my snakes! My dates this year are, stop feeding on November 1st and then turn off the heat pads on November 15th and gradually dropping the temperature to around 13 by December the 15th! Bring them back out of brumation on Februaury the 1st and offer them a smaller meal after their first shed! Thanks

agree with thorne walker. can take up to 3 weeks for them to be empty.
I've never seen the need for brumation myself and my snakes breed fine

Not that I have any experience...

From what I've read/watched you basically stop feeding then gradually drop the temp once they're 'empty' till you're in the 12-14c range.

They get fresh water but otherwise you let them be in a dark quiet spot for weeks to months...

Then gradually warm them back up, give them a small meal and wait for teh sexy dancing...
