can someone explain (answer questions) about brumation. is this something that my beardies will do on thier own ? male and female ? at what age do they start this? how long does it last ?and does this mean it will almost be like i don't have any beardies because they won't be eating , pooping , or be awake at any time ? when does this start ? and how will i know when brumation is starting? thanks
http://www.beardeddragon.org/articles/brumation/ One of our mods put together this lovely article which will answer most of your questions. Every dragon is highly individual in what they do. Your dragons will make it highly apparent to you if they want to go to sleep or not, nothing you do will stop them! Gibby sleeps for about a week at a time, then gets up for a few days to eat. Dora doesn't sleep, though she gets a little slow, and I don't know yet what's going to go on with Priss as she was to young to go down last year.
