Morning All,
I have a platyrhino female and keep her in my reptile room.
As a whole the midwest gets very cold with below 0 temps.
I have a small house that will be kept heated, and my reptile room is normally at 8-80 degrees.
I have a basement, but it is NOT insulated, has bare dirt floor, and really no where in my home that will be kept a low temp except the fridge...
I will have access to a home where she could be kept at hibernating temps...
But does anyone have ideas of how I could keep her here at home and let her hibernate?

Carol
