Second week reduce heat and light one hour at the end of each day, NO FOOD, but bathe. Third week reduce heat and light to nothing and by then they should be really sleepy, This should be done in a coldish room:0) But eight weeks should be the minimum, if they dont lose weight then another two weeks. Always monitor closely, as when they are small things happen more quickly. They can lose 10% over all the hibernation, so at any time (with your head not your heart) are not happy just get them up:0)
