Class animals, well done on breeding them. How many in total? I cant wait to get some of these although I am going to have to work on raising the humidity in my greenhouse as it dries out very fast and if I leave the water running too long it floods the underground chambers.

They should befine in most conditions killian, as long as there is areservoir of water available. Remember excess humidity can also lead fungus etc. My greenhouse has a good through flow of air and is always quite dry, but the frigs can find their own spot usually in a plant or something.

50% shall be overwintered indoors, 25% in a frost free building, 25% hibernated in an insulated box full of moss. I like to have a variety of methods undergo, (don't put all your eggs in one basket!)

good plan, but could they survive in a greenhouse? how do they hibernate in the wild?

I think they do well in a greenhouse overwinter but I have never kept them. When will these be sexually mature Adam?

The young that i have kept for myself from this year are now about half size so i intend to overwinter them indoors now and give them a short cooling in spring. I think thewy have a good chance of breeding next year.

I have 1.1 Cb:2004 and 0.0.6 Cb:2005, you guys think that they all will breed next spring (2006)? I will hibernate them indoors (in the refrigerator..). Anybody knows how big their waterbasin need to be?

They are not too fussy!!! I have had them breed in plant trays, my pond is 3" deep and covers almost all of the greenhouse.
