Hi there,

The lowest they can handle and the lowest you should let it get down to without any real negative effects are likely two different numbers.

Like I said in your other thread, above 60 is fine. Some people add heat if it gets below 65. I've let temps drop below 60 in the past without issues, but I'd say 60 is the point now where I'd consider using a CHE.

Night time cool downs are very natural and necessary for them.

So whichever number you go with, its largely personal preference.

How old is the dragon ?

An adult or large juvenile can handle lower temperatures overnight than a hatchling who will chill very fast in comparision .

I suggest no cooler than 24 degC overnight for hatchlings , I provide heatpad warmed ceramic tiles under the hide for my skinks and dragons ( all ages ) , who have the choice to retire to the warmed hide overnight if they choose to do so , most my skinks and dragons love their nice warm hides.

No cooler than 18 degC overnight is generally regarded as acceptable for healthy adult dragons ( in Australian keeper circles ).

Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
is tape safe for fixing something in my leopard geckos hide?
Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
