I don't brumate my Egyptians. I'm currently incubating a clutch of fertile eggs. I really don't think it's neccessary. In the wild they brumate in order to survive when the climate is unfavorable. In captivity, if temps are kept warm and food is plentiful, there is no need to brumate. This is just my opinion.
