I'm at stage 2 for hibernation by how much do you decrease the lighting /heat per day ?
Also do you let them still have a walk,i always let Pebbles walk around the hall for 10 mins per day Thanks Michele

Hi Mich, what exactly do you mean by stage 2? Do yoiu mean you've done 1 week with no food?
Also, how long are you winding down for?

As far as I'm aware there are no hard and fast rules, but I would go for 6 hours light and heat, reducing to four then no heat for the last 5 days or so
