    yeah
    there's no space in my fridge either
    Jeff's already had to put up with rodents taking up 20% of the freezer space

    Re: Burmation?

    i've been wondering about brumation myself, it doesn't get that cold in central texas, at least not for extended periods of time. there is no room in our fridge, but i could possibly buy a small dorm-room-style fridge for the spare room, would that work? i would have to house some snakes together that aren't normaly in the same tank because i don't see getting more than a couple of rubbermaid containers in there, but i guess that's ok?

    actually
    I'm kind of curious about that as well
    in our apartment that we just moved out of, there were a couple of rooms cold enough that the snakes I did have could brumate in their enclosures
    but when you put them in a fridge you obviously need to put them in a smaller container and then in the fridge
    for those of you who do that, how do you go about it?
    do you just - after some cooling and light reduction, I assume - grab them out of their enclosure, put them in a container, and set them in the fridge?

    you can, but...
    its better to keep them seperated and put the male back to the enclosure a few days earlier
