So my bearded dragon daisy has ban sitting in her house for past month and an a half and didn't want to come out...when at first i noticed that i decided to start pulling her out of it to her basking spot but after the night she was back in...so after like 2 weeks of trying to make her stay out of the house i decided to leave her there because no matter what i did she went back there.Even though she was in the house i still turned her lights on everyday,but 3 weeks ago i decided to to turn them off and not to turn them on at all because i thought it could be her brumating time(i didn't feed her either for past 3 weeks because i reed that they are not suppose to eat before brumation).The problem is that she doesn't fall to sleep and she just sits there.....all her lights are off the temperature in the room is about 65F
Im worried because i dont know what to do should i leave her like that and wait till she falls to sleep and brumates?or take her out and and turn the lights on and start feeding her?
Personally, I'd leave the lights on. That way if she feels like basking she can bask, but if she doesn't she can go hang out in the cooler side of the tank. Dragons are pretty good at judging what their body needs. Here's an awesome article on brumation that talks about feeding and hydration and such! http://www.beardeddragon.org/articles/brumation/

You don't have to but I would leave food in there for her anyway cuz they do (if not dead asleep all the way through for 3 months)
come out for a bite to eat but make sure she poos between she eats and when she wants to sleep so food doesn't rot in her
stomach.
