    graveyard shift
    My boyfriend and I are about to switch to full time graveyard shift. I am thinking about switching my reptiles to it as well so I'm not always waking them up in the middle of the night when I am home. Any suggestions on how to switch them without too much stress? Thank you

    If you're set on doing it, I'd move their light schedule ahead 1 hour a day.

    A number of your animals are nocturnal, and even your corns (which are primarily diurnal in the wild) can be active at night, so you don't necessarily HAVE to change their schedules. If you keep your interaction with them in the late evening or early morning, you don't need to change anything.

    Keep in mind that if there are any windows where they are kept, they won't get ANY real "nighttime" if you keep lights on during the night.
