Can anyone tell me how brief a brumation can actually be?
I live in a high heat climate with only mild winters. I plan on doing a natural brumation, only supplimenting heat when necessary so my snakes don't get below 50 degrees. I am confident I can maintain an average of 50-55 for 1.5-2 months. Thats the best I can do considering my living situation.
Species are
Corns
Hondurans
Thayeri
All of these snakes are found in climates that are just like where I live. South Texas.. With that being said, I think it will be succesfull.
I am not looking for advice on how to brumate longer or better!

I just need some experienced thoughts and some evidence to say whether this will or will not work.
Thanks!
