>>I would also go with the total dark theory, simply can't hurt. I believe some others on here have some sage advice, I know I couldn't get mine down cool enough this year and had all infertile eggs, I am attributing that to keeper failure, DOH! But I believe my south Texas winters just won't do it, I need to get much cooler, especially for the males, IMO.
Todd....
I am going to build a foam insulated box around my A/C unit...Much like the one I had lofted in my old snake room....But this time I am going to be smarter and hibernated them on the cold concrete floor.....Cold air does fall, right?...LOL
Do you also think the males seem to need the lower temps more than the females?.....I do too....
I didn't even cool mine off this year (but they did get a natural light cycle) and had two females double clutch infertile eggs.....
If the females are producing eggs I take it the males didn't do their part....
Is this true? It's just my point of view..
