[spikethebeardie2013]

Hi my Beardie is 2 YRS old and he can't stop sleeping like hell wake up if a cricket hoes by him he'll eat it then go back to bed. Could he be going into brumation because I live in ny and it is starting to get colder.
Thanks for answers guys.

Yes, that's most likely brumation and is perfectly normal. There are lots of threads with worried owners right now on these forums with the same question. There is an article on the right side of the page that goes in to detail about brumation.

Hello,

Since he is just two, is this the first time he has started sleeping like this?
It is highly likely it is brumation, as that is pretty common this time of year.
If he is apparently healthy, not losing weight & does not have a black beard to indicate he isn't well then you can just be sure he is hydrated & let him sleep some. You can check on him frequently though if you would like, without rousing him too much. They can do sleeping marathons, it is amazing!
