Hi all :D My Soc has just come out of his first brumation (he was down for 5 days). He seems alert and runs around the viv, but he doesnt seem to have an appetite :? Is this normal? Before he went down he was eating bout 12 supers a day and all his veg and since he's woken up (2 days ago) he's had no salad and only about 7 worms over the two days :cry: I'm worried somthing might be wrong.

Brumation comes in many forms, and it could still be affecting his appetite even though he's not sleeping anymore. I wouldn't worry about it too much right now as long as he's behaving well, his tank temperatures and conditions are all correct, and he doesn't appear to be ill or losing weight.

I agree with Catalyst, brumation is different for each beardie. Elvis has been in hiding since December. He's awake during the day now but he won't budge from his hide, and wont eat or bask. But he still looks fat and healthy. As long as your beardie looks healthy, he's probably okay.

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
is tape safe for fixing something in my leopard geckos hide?
Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
