Food will dry out in the refrigerator, so I would think that the snakes may dehydrate as well, if not able to drink or crawl through a water source at will.
My pyros and pits all drink all winter even in brumation. Although this year it has been so warm, a wonderful Indian summer here, that I have not put them into the brumation tubs yet, and in fact am still offering food, with a few takers still yet.
I am feeding the baby bulls and their mama a lot and will likely do so all winter, so no brumation for them.

The baby bulls yesterday. They come out and "wave" at me when they are hungry, which is every few days. Please excuse fuzzy pic.
I would like to get my baby pyros into brumation now, but just have to wait for the weather. As soon as the temperatures drop the snakes go on the floor of the cabin in tubs covered with quilts for the winter.
Outdoors there are about a zillion fence lizards and other little reptile creatures still out and about. ----- Bob
