Hi! Merry Christmas to all!

My black pines are brumated in an unfinished room. The temp varies from 45 degrees up. I have a little space heater that keeps it from getting any colder. Being in N. Florida, sometimes it gets up around 70 in there. They do just fine with a two month or so brumation. I usually can't stand it any longer and have to take them out.

I find the pine babies are easier to deal with than bull babies. They spaz out less and strike less, but they can sure work up a pretty good hissy fit. Adults are real similar to bulls, tho they don't quite have the appetite. Sometimes, they just aren't hungry - unlike my red bull female that will eat every day of the week.
