Cooling gravid females?

[xdeus]

I'm trying to breed three females, and I think one may be gravid. I got kind of a late start, but I was wondering if I continue to cool them will it harm the eggs inside the gravid one? Right now I'm doing the night drop which brings down the temps to around 72-82.

Also, do the males have to be cooled as well? When I give my male a break, I put him in another rack with normal temps.

I would get the gravid female on heat ... she needs it ... otherwise you could get slugs ... been there, done that.

That should be fine.

Thanks Adam! Once again, it's all in the details...
