Does Anybody NOT................

brumate their easterns? Is it even doable or do they need that down time? Or is it mainly for breeding health purposes?

I keep five-lined skinks and an eastern gray tree frog year round with no seeming ill effects and just wondered if it can be done with hogs. Thanks in advance for any info.

no you dont have to cool your hognose,but if it is wild caught it may go off feeding till spring,but it will not hurt it at all.

Thanks for the response. Frog and skink don't need down time. I just wasn't sure if a hog could deal with it.

And in case you woinder, I don't intend to do this. Just a curiosity. Thanks again.
