How cool is cool? How warm is warm? My hatchlings seem to thrive even with cool low 50's nights, but they must be good and warm during the day, which is either Sun and/or ReptiSun bulb to bask under. I hibernate my adults, but keep the young of the year up all Winter. You could probably keep your little ones going fine with basking lights, but I am concerned you won't get your adult cool enough to be safe for a few months unless moved to a cooler building.
