First Brumation Very excited

[Dannye92]

Well here it is, iv been reading up on brumation and read all the symptoms. From this i now know that my little pooper is actually goin through brumation, Ialways thought he was just beeing lazy sleeping around and for the digging, i thought he was doin it to wake me up :lol:

I'm gonna take him to the breeder i bought him from tomoz just to make sure everythings ok and perhaps buy some more relevant materials for him, Right now i made him a 5min bodge job shoe box and some soft cloth stuff.

Gonna bath him tomoz aswell and slowly cut down on his light/heat, Any usefull tips or what else i should be in mind of would be very useful.

Thanks
Danny & spike

Alright, congrats on the first one. You should take/post some pics of where he decided to snuggle up to for his long sleep. Although i don't know who gets excited for brumation, you'll miss him soon enough

Yh ill take some pics tomoz, hopefully i can find something mor adequate for him to sleep in, As i said right now all hes sleeping in is a shoe box with this mat stuff in it, He seems to like it though so hey.

You could give him an old t shirt of yours, or go to kmart/dollar tree/etc and buy a baby blanket.

Thats a good idea, Ill see what i can find tomoz and upload some pics.

Sounds good! Always worth it to run a fecal test, too, just to be sure.
