Well the setup withe above tank did not seem to allow the terrrarium to get cold enough so I took the two H versicolors I still have and put them in a storage container in the garage. The temperature outside the terrarium never went below 60F/15C even withe temperature outside around 20F/-5C. The container they are in now is filled ~ half way up with dirt and leaves and then I placed the two hides they were in inside the container.

The temperature in the garage is at ~45F/7C. It doesn't get as cold in there as it does outside since there is a huge freezer that actually gives off some heat. That and I suppose some of the heat from the house disapates in there as well. Do you think I should allow them to get colder than 5C? I will monitor the temperature. Has anyone who cycled H versicolor kept tabs on how cold they've lethem become? I assume I should leave them out in the garage til sometime in March.

What humidity level do you recommend? I have a gadget that measures temperature and humidity and I think I will plop that it there when I am done typing this to see what it is. Want to thank you again for this most excellent article.
