hey,
my carpet python, has just gone into hibernation. i didn't want her to but i was waiting on a heat light seeming its just getting into winter, can i bring her out or should i switch everythig off and let her be. i'm maintaining a 20 degree C heat mat at the moment... and with the lamp it rises to about 25-30. it doesn't snow but we will get frosts.
i need help! |

Just turning of the heat to a carpet over winter in an indoor tank is a recipie for disaster. |
