He just went to the bathroom, biggest I've ever seen. It followed a roughly 30 minute bath. So relieved!

Interesting, wonder if mine does that too! I'll try to increase the day time by a couple hours. Would you think brumation is the most likely cause here? He's booked in for an Xray in 1 weeks time, just to clear him of any internal issues.
