give me some more than basic tips on breeding L. Getula Californiae?? One big question is how do I drop the temps for brumation?

Some people use a modified small refridgerator, others just use the basement, but the fridge is tricky business if you don't know what you are doing. You want the temps to be 55-60 degrees for brumation, no warmer, no colder. Don't feed them for a month before brumating, too, you want their systems to be completely empty of food.

The fridge would be tricky business, unless you might be able to tell me how it works?? any help at all is appreciated and thanks for the reply!

We haven't had to brumate any snakes as of yet so we haven't looked into it for ourselves. We work with mostly tropical species that require little or no cooling. Some info I found:

I tried searching for something more detailed, but couldn't find anything.
