Here in North America winter and cold weather are far approaching or maybe already here depending on your location.
I've noticed a reduction in appetite and activity in a few specimens so I'm changing up husbandry during the winter.
Last year with slings I kept them at a decent temp range of 78 to about 72 at night. Since everyone is a year older, gonna do things a little differently. Reduced day and night temps. Reduced moisture. I 100% believe in seasonal fluctuations.
I also plan on not feeding for the month of January. Unless I see signs of a smaller than normal abdomen of course.
Does anyone else change things up during the winter months?
