[QUOTE="xp29, post: 2010214, member: 114539"] Just search for post here about brumation, you'll see pretty quickly they do in fact do so, it sounds to me like maybe your vet don't know much about the specifics of beardies. How often do you give her the calcium powder? And what type of uvb bulb are you using? If it's the coil/compact type those are garbage, she needs a long tube type or even a mvb would be better (but those have some inherent draw backs). It should be around 24 inches long and placed 12 to 15 inches unobstructed. Also what is her basking temp? An adult needs 95 to 100 degrees and its best to use a digital probe thermometer to measure the temp. The infrared guns can be inaccurate on some materials. If your lighting isn't on point it will cause issues. Or it could be she is trying to brumate. They don't all or always go down for a deep sleep, my 4 y.o. males has never, he just gets incredibly lazy (even more so than normal lol) and naps around for 5 or 6 weeks. Then back to bobbing at the girls lol. [/QUOTE]
