If it was me ,I might be tempted to slowly cool them down to about 11oC for a few weeks and then gradually warm them up as Spring arrives and see if this 'fires them into action'...as I'm sure your aware they need good weight before you try this.If this works then at least you know where you are with them as regards to their biological clock.

kind regards Paul
