Answer
Hello,

Pogona sp. Including henrylawsoni (rankins) do not and should not hibernate. Whether you reduce photoperiod at the same time as temps is another story as many breeders do this. I would recommend mild temp drop and drop photoperiod by a few hours gradually for a few months. If they are first - second year then i wouldnt advise this. Also parasite check them ie at reptiland.co.uk or another lab first.
