    As long as your females are fed and no longer hungry I don't think there is a great chance he'll get eaten but there is still a chance.
    I agree with Stefan, a male with females = gravid female at any time of the year.

    This is information I had never considered! i assumed that breeding took place shortly after brumation. Is this not the case? Can they breed any time during the summer months and not just in the few weeks after waking up??? (the things we learn on this forum!)

    Yes. No brumation is no contraception.
