Hello, Commissioner Gordon went into his hide yesterday and hasn't come out. I currently have his Viv. in the living room, the most 'high traffic' spot in my apartment.
This is my first time experiencing brumation.
I went to take out old food today, wiped down the tank a bit with some water, but I disturbed him and he woke up, but stayed in this lil'hut.

Should I move his home to the spare bedroom where he will be less disturbed? What do you guys think?

How old is Commissioner Gordon? Two of my three dragons are brumating. I have left their tanks in their normal spots in the family room. My son hollers a lot at the Xbox and there is weekly noise from the vacuum. The noise does not seem to disturb them, however. So no, I wouldn't move their tanks. Have you read this article on brumation? It's very good. http://www.beardeddragon.org/articles/brumation/

I have read that article, It was really helpful, had no idea what to expect at first.
The commissioner is around 4 maybe 5 years old now. I adopted him, with little information so I can't be sure.
I'll leave his tank where it is for now. He has always been a light sleeper, I have noticed him awake a couple times in the past 3 days, just by peering into his hide, but all beardies are different I guess.

How old are your dragons?

so do you just keep your lighting the same when they are brumating? or is the 10 vub a lower level? Not sure what wattage i'm using right now
I still have a day light and heat lamp at the basking end of the tank.

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?
