How cold is too cold?

A few years back there was a article in the U.S A mag Breeders digest written by Stan Chiras, one of the most succesfull Diamond breeders.
He would put them in a styrofome box all winter with no water or heat, cant remmember temps.
Maybe google him.

you can get away with that with some diamonds, but youll make most other pythons very sick, even kill them if you cool them that way.

I offered no night time heat to my bredli (which i s never do anyway) temps got to around 14 degrees at its coldest and for a change i gave them a day time basking spot of 35 degrees (which i haven't done before). I had my worst results ever.
