So I introduce the animals DURING the cycling period?
Yes, that is what I did. I did the night temp drop thing for about a month, then for the next two months (while still lowering the night temps) I would put the male in with the two females intermittantly.
I had tried the "regular" colubrid method of breeding ridleyi when they were two years old (winter brumation, no feeding, warm them up and feed lots in the spring, and introduce the pairs) but didn't have any luck. Their failure to reproduce on my first attempt could have just as easily been due to their young age than to my methods, or both.
Take care,
Ronda
