Do you provide cooler temps for the males?

Brumation will be very tricky for me. Its almost better that I don't attempt it due to major temp fluctuations here. My snakes are in a poorly insulated room, common area... Temps in the winter average 60 H 40 L but are likely to have some warm fronts pushing the 70's at times.

I may get my snake room down to 50's at night but then could be back up to 70's a couple days later! Not sure I want to take the RI risks.

Any specific temps you use, thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

My plan is to try and maintain 60-65 Night 65-75 Day...
I have never done it this way so I don't know what to expect. Last year I lived in Michigan. They don't all have a heating device so I am worried about feeding them when the temps are down.

I have Getula Hondurensis, Thayeri
