Hi everyone!

Has anyone noticed their beardies brumation pattern switch as they get older? Drogon just turned four. I mentioned in earlier posts that he was extremely picky with food lately. We've been having an unseasonably cool spring/summer here in SC along with more cooler rainstorms. Now I noticed he's been hiding and sleeping for days. He used to brumate from September to mid December. Can they change months??

I haven't noticed it in mine but it would be reasonable to think so. Brumation is triggered environmentally in part plus the the seasons here are opposite of Australia so their biological clock ⏰ is likely out of adjustment 😄

Yeah cuz even with supers he's been like no 😑 do you have any recommendations to keep him comfortable while he's going through this? He's been annoyingly picky and doesn't wanna come out of his hide!

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
is tape safe for fixing something in my leopard geckos hide?
