My pyros are now out of their brumation tubs but I have not turned on the bottom heat, just letting the ambient room temperature warm them up. The nights are still cold (I heat my cabin in the woods with a wood stove). So to some extent my indoor temps follow the same pattern as the outdoor temps, although warmer by 20 or so degrees at night. Once they begin moving about like they are hungry I will turn on the UTHs and commence feeding.



One thing they did last year in early February while still brumating is breed. I know because both females in my trio became gravid even though I loaned the male out to a friend when I brought them out of brumation.

Keeping cats allows man to cohabitate with tigers. Keeping reptiles allows man to cohabitate with dinosaurs.
