Hi there,
I was wondering what age and size a bredli female python needs to be to breed.
Also what temperature do i cool them both down at for hibernation? I have turned their heat lamps off and the room temperature is a constant 22 degrees. Is this cool enough? |

Give them constant 30+ deg C daytime temps for around 8-10 hours at least and switch of night time heat . If you don't give them warm days you may end up with a sick snake. As long as you give them warm days night temps can fall below 10 deg C without affecting the snakes health. |

My bredli girl is a tad over 6ft and 2.1kg, should I try her and see what happens, is there any risk to her?
