brumation ? for dana & any other experienced breeders

How often do you mist/spray your frilleds during brumation? Are yours becoming less active yet? I'm probably going to start dropping my temps because 1 of my females is barely eating... about that time huh?

My guys are on some weird schedule--they are breeding and egg laying this time of year--I have no idea why. LOL. They did this last year too. I wound up not even brumating last season because of it.
The year before, I really put them down. Turned off lights, covered cages and no water for a month. One month prior I eased them into it, one month after I eased them out. I know that this is overkill and not necessary though. I'd just limit water to once a day or every other day.
Good luck.
Dana
