I don't think you HAVE to cool them, if a male and female are housed together there is always a chance they could breed, I guess.

It really depends on the species - most temperate species need to brumate, particulalry males, to allow healthy, viable and fertile sperm to develop.
Some breeders don't bother and still have success. Those from more tropical species tend not to be cooled but need to have changes in humidity, photoperiod and night time temperatures.

You do not have to cool snakes to get them to breed it just inreases your chances of sucess and I have been told it also increases fertility in both sexes.
