I have personally seen diamonds here in south florida that are kept outside during the winter basking at 8am when ambient temps are in the 40s. The breeder that has these animals has consistently produced for the last 3 years by keeping them this way. This breeder has also never lost one diamond or had one become sick when keeping them outside for their winter cooling. It's amazing to see pythons breeding when it's in the 50's and if you touch them they are warm.
