I have my 2 adult Dis and my baby 6 month old Di brumating in 3
separate tupperware tubs placed in a larger tub under a slightly opened window (in PA).
I am able to keep the temps fairly consistant 64-70 F.

I have noticed when checking on them that the adults are sleeping soundly however
the baby is almost as alert as if under full heat. All 3 appear healthy with not much weight loss.
I may wake them soon as the adults have been under since June02 the baby since10/19/02

have a good holiday
