I am a little confused at the moment but my beardie is 10 months old and has started to Brumating as it’s winter in Australia. I am worried because he now eats every 3-4 days. He just sleeps in his cave for 3-4 days then when he comes out for the day he is absolutely fine the. The following day he is back in the cave for 3-4 days.
I am worried this is going to affect his growth. I have tried to attempt to stop his brumation but it’s not working.
It's not uncommon for a sub adult to do this. As long as they have proper lights + temps., are healthy weight and decent over all size they will be fine.
Proper lights = long tube fixture and they are not all the same there are 3 good ones recommended on this forum-- proper temps= 95-100 surface basking temps taken w/ a digital probe thermometer - good weight = 300 + grams -- if you need help w/ any of this please ask --
