I never heard the rumor about lower temps, but this much I know:
1) My gliders have never bred, never even have sex...2 yr old pair.
2) I have my gliders in a room that averages 63-68 degrees, and of course thats around the low end at night.
3) I keep my gliders on a diet of Bourbon's modified leadbeaters and fresh fruit/veggies, with insects. Nice, balanced diet.

I'm going to buy a small heater for their room, and enclose it in wire mesh. I don't know if the lower than usual temperature is the cause of their not breeding, but if they start having sex all the time, I'll let ya'll know.
