When should I brumate my Colubrids?

jkins Oct 26, 2004 05:06 PM

Hello,
I was wondering when would be a good time to put my colubrids down for the winter. Also what is the ideal temps. I have read that the ideal time is Dec.-March and keep them around 50F. Any information would be helpful. Thanks in advance.
