I am planning on breeding my snakes for the first time, I have collected as much information as I can from this site and I have just a couple more questions I need to know :)
Do you have to wait until he last feed after hibernations has passed through the male & female's bodies before they are put together?
I have lots of left over mice for my snakes as I forgot that I was going to hibernate them so soon, so would the mice last until a couple of months later?
Any other tips would be very appreciated !!

| ive never bred myself, but im sure your need to leave them a few weeks after last feed to make sure they have pasted everything in the guts before u start cooling |

This indeed.
Just make sure you've got some time on your hands for the hatchies afterwards and would be happy to let them go at a loss.
In all honesty breeding can sometimes be a bit of a gamble that they'll go.

I've got baby beardies still (not a corn but still gives you an idea) that hatched in May that I simply can't shift.
Dropped them to 10 squids each and still no bites. |

weren't there corns going for £1.50 at Donny?
just to echo other people's posts above....
breeding is a huge responsibility, the hatchies do take up a surprising amount of time and effort, and there's the equipment to buy to house them, the pinkies to buy to feed them, the hassle of non-feeders..........and there's no guarantee that you can even exchange them at your LRS for store credit - they're unlikely to buy more when they have loads already  |

well im sure you do have to wait untill the snakes have passed their food and the famale has to shed before you stop cooling i think but i hope all goes well
Any other tips would be very appreciated !!

to reiterate whats already been said, i have amels, aneries, snows, butter motleys, ghosts and hypos, i cant even get shot of them at silly prices.
dont expect anything from the babies after you have fed them. |
