[QUOTE="AHBD, post: 2037473, member: 40059"] Hi there, the 3 month brumation time is just a suggestion, not a rule. I remember writing here that I don't like for my dragons to brumate longer than that and other people took it as " don't let any dragon " brumate longer. My personal preference is simply because that amount of time is plenty and I just feel better or safer to see my dragons up + around. The only time I let a dragon brumate for nearly 5 months at a low temp. of around 58 F she woke up with a R.I which thankfully she recuped quickly after antibiotics. So I prefer to wake them after 3 months by removing the hide, increasing the light exposure. No other dragon has woken up ill after that 1. They don't eat anything at all and rarely had a drink that I can remember even when offered. Other owners may do things a little differently. So your dragon should be fine, if you want to start increasing the light period by an hour that might help, you can start now or wait another 2 weeks or a month. What was her condition + weight before she zonked out ? [/QUOTE]
