hi

after lots of reading and searching i am still unsure. i need to know what to do with my 2 adult corns that a resuced from a horrid woman in january.
the question is shoud i or should i not burmate them? the woman never told me if she had ever done it before so if i did do it could it hurt them in anyway? considering that they have been in the same tank together all their lives. would it effect beeding. would they just do things on thir own?

any info would be nice

thanks
 
Lenore,
First off, are you sure you have a male and a female? Secondly, how are you defining "adult?" 300 grams? If you are planning to breed them, and you definitely have a sexually mature pair in good health, then brumation will improve your odds for a successful breeding. In my opinion, cooling them is not as important as reducing their photoperiod. Give them fewer daylight hours. As for cooling them, it doesn't take much. They should not be fed during the cooling and two weeks before. If you are not planning on breeding them it is not necessary to brumate them. I suggest waiting another season and in the meantime, hang around here, read a lot, and learn as much as you can before attempting to breed your snakes.

yes they have been probed. my female is 7yrs old and just under 4foot in length, the male is 6 and is over 5 foot in length. i dont plan on breeding. however if they did i have the right equipment for eggs as she laid slugs a while back.


thank you
