just make sure the nest is moist, be careful tho, the lower tempretures will mean the water stays longer, so dont drown them

in deed sith, just keep the nest moist like miszt said, if you normally spray (ore how you do it) the nest once a week do it now only 2 times a month. and keep an eye on it that it will not go to moist.
