The Hibernating

I was wondering if anyone has successfully bred fat Tails without the Hibernating period?
Also.. What is the best way to do that? Do you really not offer food for three weeks?

This is what I have been told works well.
Cool your cages down to 70-75 degrees for roughly a month. Then put the pair together and gradually bring the temp back up over a couple weeks. Offer food maybe once a week but they generally will not eat.
hope this helps
