Global warming and brumation

xblackheart Nov 15, 2006 02:44 PM

This Global Warming thing is killing me. I have noticed the last few years that the winters in Cali are getting more and more mild. Fall stays warmer longer. It's messing up my brumation schedule. I just put my snakes away for brumation yesterday and today is bright and sunny. It is like 70 degrees!!!! How many other people are having trouble with the weather not cooperating?

Yes, I got tired of the unpredictable winter weather too. This year when the summer was just about over, I picked up a room air conditioner for a great clearance price because they were moving them out to make room for the fall stuff. I sealed up a large closet and put my corns in there with the cooler. My critters started brumating in September and I just woke them up this week, so the warm weather we are having is working well for my schedule. And now I won't be having to worry about incubating eggs in the summer when it gets over 100 degrees.
