Hello
My beardie is a little over two. Last year he went into brumation in the beg of nov until end of Jan. This year though, for the past two weeks he doest come out of his hide, but rather sits there with half opened eyes staring - so not really sleeping but not fully alert. Is this the beginning of brumation? Because it's different from last year. Last year he just went into his hide, facing the darkness and slept.
His weight is 470 grams, he didn't lose any. He was always on the smaller side, until his summer he was 410 and I finally got him to gain some weight, and it didn't come off with this behavior so that's a good thing. If I take him out to bask and offer him live food he eats right away. I always offer salad but the bugger only picks out squash and ignores everything else - this was always the same. But he jumps at dubia. So I don't know what this behavior is - any thoughts ?
