Yeah, interesting that even in cool, fall room temps, they still digest fine. At 70 degrees it takes them three days to pass their "nuclear waste". At 75 degrees, it takes about two days. At 80 degrees, it takes about an hour!! I love the hell out of my indigos, but they have the metabolic rate of a mammal!
