When do your bps stop breeding?
For me it's May.... then start again Mid-Nov/Dec
I'm just curious as to how things go for folks in different states.
Seems like mine never want to stop - The young males anyways...I had a hellva of time getting my Lesser and Pin males back on food this year...Neither started eating really good till Aug...Usually my season starts in mid - late Oct till April / May...Sometimes it'll stretch out till June / July - However long it takes to get that last girl cooked...:D

That's interesting, none of my males go off food during the breeding season. We really battle hard with low humidity here, up stairs is around 24% right now.... we are basically high plains dessert here.... so I have humidifiers running like crazy in the snake room! lol
My males usually stop eating in Jan...My females eat great through the breeding season - All the way up till about a month before they ovulate...

Hell man I think my males are weird because if I don't remove the pastel male from the room completely I don't think he would ever eat again...had a hard time getting him eating again this year and only after he spent a month away from all the girls and you got to love those ASF's.

Mine are about the same as yours.

mine stop when they finally break it up 'cause they're tired of layin' in the wet spot, (they don't use birth control, and them cold, wet sheets, well... you know ).
typically, i know when i see the "service room" tag hanging on the bucket.
occasionally, i know when they call the front desk to send up a pack of butts.

:lol: Thats to much!! :lol: Well this is my first season so I don't know just yet.. But I'm going to be keeping an eye on my girls to see what triggers them and all that jazz.. My males are all up to good size but they haven't gone off feed yet.. Do all males usually go off feed during the season??
