Hibernation Question

Krazy-K Aug 15, 2003 11:25 AM

I recently picked up a Female Thayeri king...And I already own a Gray Banded.
I was wondering if any of you Texas breeders have suggestions on how to hibernate my family this winter. Oh, by the by, I live in houston. All the reading I've done says 55 degrees for hibernation. We are lucky to see 55 degrees before dawn on christmas any info or ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks for looking
Krazy-K

Krazy K,

55 F for 60 to 90 days should work for thayeri hibernation.
