Hognose Brumation

How long on average do you usually brumate?
I put them in brumation dec 1st.
Wine refrigerator temperature is set at 64 degrees, the ambient temperature in my room is 80 degrees.

I don't currently work with hognose, but I work with other species that require brumation, and I wake them up in March.

Ok that's what I've read but I've heard of people having success with only 2 months of brumation

hognose has always been friendly, eager to come out and never hissed. About a month ago I went to take him out and he hissed at me! I was shocked and left him there. I tried again and was more persistent to which he headbutted me! Then he has gone into hiding. He no longer sleeps in his hide and moves about, he has burrowed not only under the sawdust but under the new paper at the bottom and is curled up and just stays there. He won't come out for food and if I pull back the paper he hisses,puffs and is very angry. Does anyone have any advice please? Should I leave him or force him out?
