What do you consider hibernation? Snakes stay active during brumation (hibernation). They travel around their enclosures, drink water, etc.. Don't expect your snake to hibernate like a bear and go into a deep sleep for several months. As long as the temps are low enough ( I have a problem here in southern AZ getting temps as low as I would like), your snake will do fine and lose very little weight.
