Okay so, if both my girls are brumating, do I just leave them alone until they come out of it? Or do I get them out, even if they are hidden and sleeping, to give them baths? Do I force feed them? All very very new to me. I read articles but still had questions.

For the most part I just leave my guy alone. They brumate differently so it's hard to say how each one will react. It gets easier after the first year though since you'll kind of know what to expect. Sometimes they will wake up a bit and just have sleepy looking eyes and sit there. That's usually when I take them out to record weight and offer some water. I don't offer food unless they are out and about moving around and somewhat active.

Getting ready for another day. Feeling sleepy. 😴
I just walked into my room and instead of looking at me, Swordtail's eyes darted directly to the ice cream drumstick I'm holding
Finally replaced Swordtail's substrate
I miss you so much, Amaris 💔
What is a quick way to warm up a cold beardie? His heating element went out overnight and now he's very cold.
