hibernating can be tricky the first time... I chickened out and left a basking spot lol
but some time in october you can start decreasing the heat. they will stop accepting food around that time too. the indoors doesnt have much effect because they are so driven by instinct. some say cut off all heat and some say leave a basking spot. im no expert on it yet though. I know agama international dosnt leave a basking spot. he just keeps his basement at like 65-70.
then in the spring start increasing the temps and have plenty of food with you lol
