So I am a little concerned yesterday I went about our normal routine , I put him on the windowsill he loves to look outside but instead of being super alert he got lazy and was laying down. I thought it was no big deal put him back into his enclosure before work and noticed he went under his hide . When usually he would be basking. I come home and he is still there but this time sleep . I asked my little sister who gets home around 5 what was he doing and she said he was under his hide when she came home . Now this morning I was expecting him to go back to his normal routine but he’s awake but still under his basking rock . Didn’t even get excited as usual when he seen his bug bowl
