12 month old male possible brumating??

[Scotty97]

Well Scales was awake and active for most of the day yesterday, so I tried him with some locusts. Fed him one at a time, as I didn’t know how many he would eat, he ate a box of ten large locusts.
Just hoping he will now start going to toilet, he hasn’t pooped for a few wks, as he wasn’t eating much

Aww that's good is he still awake and back to normal? Ragnar is still sleeping

As long as he is / did bask after eating - that's a lot of roaches- did he eat any salad?

 

[Scotty97]

No, he’s still in and out of sleep.
Seems to be slightly more active in the morning, and moves around a bit, and then gets comfy in afternoons and starts sleeping early evening

No he didn’t bask for long, maybe ten minutes

With that many roaches he should basked

Ok

No he didn’t bask for long, maybe ten minutes

I know, I even placed him onto his basking log, but he moved off after the ten minutes

Ragnar is still sleeping but still drinking plenty water every couple of days. That's nearly been 4 weeks just want him to wake up now missing him loads. Eating that much he deffo should of basked. I would just place him under his basking spot when he more active in the morning just to make sure if not give him a nice warm bath to help him poo. You might disturb him abit but it's better than the food just roiting away in his tummy

as scales hadn’t gone to toilet for a few weeks, he was starting to worry us, so when he’s been awake and active, we been bathing him. After a few baths, slightly warmer than usual, he finically went to toilet.

That's good to hear! How's he doing now? Did he go back to brumation?

 

[Scotty97]

he was active for about an hour and then he went back under his log.
Going to the toilet must have taken it out of him

 

[Tonilee]

Thats really good to hear I noticed with Ragnar that when he had a warmer bath than normal that's when he used to poo. He wasn't pooping alot cause he wasn't eating alot cause he was going into brumation. He is still sleeping almost been 5 weeks now.

Day 3 of ragnar being awake woohoo hopefully he stays awake now. Will order him some bugs today which I will get tomorrow and see if he will eat any

 

[Scotty97]

That’s good to hear.
Well Scales was active for a bit, but now he his in his slate house which is in the cooler side of the Viv, and he’s been sleeping solid for last two day
