Hi Paul,
Burmation can last days to several weeks. I never force My breeders down. I just let them go down when they want to. Breeding can become a huge project very fast, 1 successful breeding can produce 40 to 100 babys. I did years of research before I made my 1st attempt.

I agree, you never want to force them into it! They will tell you when they are ready! If you do you could have problems later on when trying to breed them! Good luck...

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.
