Draco has been brumating(?) for a couple of months now, I take him out once a week for a bath and he always seems healthy but he's lost about an ounce in the last 2 months, is that too much?

Hello,

Some weight loss does usually occur, that is roughly 28 grams. I would continue to check on him weekly to give a bath or oral fluids, as needed. He may just be dehydrated from brumating.
Do you have any pictures of him?

Hey, sorry it took me so long to get back to you, Draco actually woke up on his own the day after I posted and he seems to be getting back to normal :)

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.
