| | Llama Juice On Toast Subscriber | Join Date: Mar-08 Location: Adelaide Gender: | | | | here in adel tho its been 40 degrees for weeks, so i thought i might still be in luck coz it hasnt been cold at all yet but ill keep them hot all night and day and get the girl eating non stop and hopefully it will work |

| | Jellybean Club Subscriber | Join Date: Feb-06 Location: Hobbiton, Middle Earth. Gender: | | | | just keep her eating, get some condition on her, laying eggs now could be a setback if the weather gets cold, as she will be in poor condition for next season. |

| | Subscriber | Join Date: Jan-05 Location: Sydney | | | thats why you'll have to heat at night too. You'll need to get a fairly uniform temp in the cage at night to stop the beardies sensing the cold air. The best way to do this would be to heat the whole room. Set your room heater to 24 deg C and voila no winter
Of course, as Jason said, you will probably delay the start of next season. Also be careful that you beardie has recovered from laying before droping her temps. I dont really have to worry with my lawsoni females as they are back in condition after only a week of pig-out feeding, but centrals make take a little longer.

| | Llama Juice On Toast Subscriber | Join Date: Mar-08 Location: Adelaide Gender: | | | | Yea i will set it too 24, should i put a light in that is a black globe for the heat or something so the bright heat light doesnt confuse them? and the other thing is since i have seen them attempting too breed for all i know she may be pregnant now, i just dont no how long it would be untill i can tell if she is
thought while i might add a photo of one of my young beardies on here ...
