My 2 year old boy is going into brumation for the first time since I’ve had him. He’s eating a lot less and naps all day. I’m going to take him to the vets to get a stool sample to check for parasites, but what am I supposed to do to care for him whilst he’s sleeping?
He’s not fully asleep, he just naps most of the day and night but wakes up every now and again. He doesn’t bask, just digs himself a hole and goes to sleep. He’s eaten some veggies and a few bugs in the past few days and had a few bowel movements. I need to buy him a hide that he can sleep in.
What should I do about his temps and his UV? How much do I feed him, if at all? How do I make sure he’s staying hydrated? Any advice would be much appreciated. I should also mention that he’s had a nice bright beard for the past few days and hasn’t gone black at all, but he has shown signs of wanting to be left alone instead of messed around with.
