Oh yes, silly me forgot to put the link in. Thanks BDlvr. One of the side effects of multi tasking, occasionally I get distracted and post before I am ready to.

At this point I think its best to just increase the daylight time from 12 hours to 14 gradually, say about half hour every week till its up to 14 hours. Your male is highly active and no point putting him into brumation again.

Greens I find it is best to choose 2-4 of the big staples (collard greens, endive (or chicory), Escarole, mustard greens, or dandelion greens) then add some of the occasional greens and vegetables as shown in the chart at beautiful dragons. Variety is the key. Kale can be added sparingly but it needs the support of healthier calcium rich greens.

The list at that website isn't all exclusive, there are other greens and vegetables that are not on it but for the most part, the ones on that list can be found at most grocery stores...though some are seasonal.
