Kathy and Bill Love's book 'Corn Snakes The Comprehensive Owners Guide' has a pretty good section on breeding. In fact it's a book I would recommend to all corn snake owners.

Plus I would just spend time reading through all the threads in the breeding section on here. You will probably pick up quite a bit of information that way although some of it may be contradictory

To be honest Kdlang is right, that book is basically a bible!

That said, nothing beats experience. But seriously, get the book
