10 month old in brumation!! Advice pls

[Steviex]

Hi all, my 10 month old bearded dragon appears to be brumating! She has been trying to brumate for about a month, but I kept picking her up and putting her back under her basking spot! For the past 6 days she has not moved, hiding in the shade and fast asleep! She does slightly open her eyes if I touch her or try to move her and puffs out so her spikes dig in to me! My only worry is that she is not a large beardie to start with and I'm scared off her loosing weight, and not getting enough uvb! Nothing has changed in her viv and temps in hot side is 100 Fahrenheit and cool area 78! I use an Arcadia uvb a t5. I've read lots of posts that state at this age she shouldn't brumate! Do I leave her or do I wake her?

Some time has passed; how is she doing now?

What are your overnight temperatures like? If the viv falls below 18*C, you may want to pick up a ceramic heat emitter and thermostat.

How many hours of daylight does she get?
