Don't particularly want to speak for Mark, but since you're in a hurry, I know he shut down sales of harvesters on phrynosoma a little while ago due to winter.



I shut down my sales about a month ago for the same reason. In fact I sent some of my last ants out to Mark for some of his HLs that were still up, and I was hoping that he had some smaller ones to send back to me for my hatchlings. Everybody is hurting on ants right now, and this ain't 'zactly the best weekend to be asking for ants, know what I mean? For that reason you should be hibernating them if you can.



If this ice storm breaks in the next couple days I might gather a few to sustain my hatchlings, and if the cold temps hold this time, the adults will be asleep hopefully for a month or two without too much disturbance.



If your lizards don't have the fat reserves to hibernate then the next best food ( though inferior in my opinion ) is pinhead crickets. They can be used in a pinch until you can get ants.

You might post a pic of your lizards if you need to know whether they are fat enough to hibernate. That would be best for them given the situation, rather than letting them burn calories and starve for lack of food.
