Posted by: kensopher at Mon Nov 6 14:45:45 2006 [ Report Abuse ] [ Email Message ] [ Show All Posts by kensopher ] My vote would be no. I'm an all or nothing kind of guy. Either fully brumate them at around 45 degrees F, or keep them at the recommended maintenance of around 75 with a hot basking site. They can stay at 68 degrees for a while, but not nearly as long as typical brumation. 68 is not warm enough, typically, for them to want to eat. However, it is warm enough to where they'll burn calories and lose body mass. In my experience, it is a recipe for illness.
