As long as she seems fat, she should be ok. Some snakes will brumate regardless of temp. especially if WC. They can sense the day/night cycle changing and even slight temperature changes can trigger the natural instincts to brumate. As long as the snake has water and is keeping its body weight, it should be totally fine. If it starts to get skinny and go down hill, take it to a vet. Andy
