99. Passing of winter solistice marks beginning of 2011 breeding season.
After a period of cooling the housing temperatures of our main breeders, and following the winter solistice, today we will be raising housing temperatures and start preparing for the 2011 breeding season. Reptiles are great at sensing enviromental change and quickly pickup on the fact that the length of daylight is increasing. So as soon as housing temperatures are raised we are expecting breeding interest, and activity to begin almost straight away. Our earliest eggs were laid 22nd January this year. So fingers crossed for a similar response in 2011.
