I know that the brumation stage is probably starting, but I haven't experienced it as of yet. Well today I got up at my usual 8AM and Harry's light had been on for about a 1/2 hour at that point. He was still lounging on his blanket with his head on his llog. He looked so comfy just lounging there. I got my coffee, then began making his salad. Put the dish in his Viv and he glanced at it but didn't move. Then I added the fresh water dish and he started to move then decided to snuggle back in the blanket and ignore that too. Well I brought out the worm keeper and Oh My he jumped 10 feet laid back down and opened his mouth. He wanted me to hand feed him, the lazy bugger. So I got a couple worms in, a few bites of salad, he hates salad and even some baby food squash in, tee hee. He laid in bed the whole time. Well I moved him to his basking spot and he reluctantly laid there for a while, then went back to bed, lol. He was being just like my oldest daughter during the school years, lol. I went about my day and Harry was watching me while he was in his bed and he kept looking at his water bowl. He got up moved about an inch and looked at me then the water as if to tell me to put him in his bowl. I moved him a little closer and he jumped in. It was too funny. I know that when they are tired they will sleep, but I never expected him to demand I move him around and hand feed him so he can be lazy!! Please tell me this isn't going to last all fall or winter?
