I live deep in the woods of Ga., and I have a weird situation I want to think ahead on when winter temps arrive. There's no screen on my bathroom window, and the window stays open all the time.

I have a Green Tree Frog that has adopted my bathroom as its daytime safe haven. He goes out at dusk and returns at dawn. (Cute lil guy) I even leave a small bucket of well water sitting in the tub that I change daily, and sometimes it takes a swim, lol.

I'm an old herper, so he/she is welcome to hang here, but I started thinking about winter, and what will happen?

Does anyone know...do they hibernate, and if they do...where? (I'm wondering if they go underground or what? It gets down to 18-30 here some winters and then warms back up for a few days). I keep this bathroom natural (no heat/no AC) whereas the rest of the house is heated/AC. Anyone know any info about non captive conditions?

Told ya it was weird. :P
