John,
>>I finally got my brumination chamber finished and it is holding 46F and dropping down to 43F at times......
In correspondence with Tim @ Vivid, less than 44F can be lethal for Lmt’s…
>>I was wondering though, has anyone ever bruminated at 46F with no ill effects come 3 months later?
I’ve not tried it after corresponding with Tim…The year before last, I only had a few days with temps below 60F and had three egg clutches (avg = 62-63F). Last year avg temp was 58-59F…Again, two clutches of eggs…
Just my 10 cents worth man…
Later,
Jim.
PS: From correspondence with an old friend, it’s better to keep the males cooler than the females (bottom of the stack in the closet)…
