Hi all,

Ok, I started warming Baby T up as temps are warming here. Supposed to be 67 tomorrow(finally). I will warm him to 60 degrees for 3 days, then room temp 68-70 for 3 days and then go up to normal lighting and temps. Does this sound good? When should I start soaking him? After a day at room temp? Should I use warm or cool water the first time I soak him and for how long?

I again appreciate everyones ongoing help. He has made it 10 weeks without any weight loss. I just hope he comes out of hibernation without illness.

Thanks

Linda
