But yea, they need it colder than most need it in the cold months
I talk to a very successful pure diamond breeder, and from what he has expressed to me, that old technique of brumating them is absurd. The ambient temp is what he allows to drop to the 50's/60's, but he allows them a warm basking site during the day.

Here's an online radio interview that he's done.
