Seriously...I keep my milks up and feeding throughout the winter...just reduce their light cycle (automatic timer for the lights) and the belly heat stays on.



They don't eat as much, but they still grow. I don't get a break, so that kinda sucks, but I can breed sooner and have larger females.



My lone Arizona Mt. has been off feed for about 7 weeks...I don't give him any heat ever and he doesn't start eating until Feb or so.



One day soon I plan on trying to breed Arizona's without a "classic" brumation period(no light and cold temps) and see if I can get good eggs. I don't know if it's ever been done successfully or not.
