Hi, not sure if this is behavior or health. I've seen posts and threads about dragons that haven't brumated before and I know that you can keep them from brumating but I'm wondering if they can skip a brumation on their own.
Boga has brumated the past two winters and it's now almost January and she's still awake. Not eating unless it's a bug or a blueberry, not very active either, but she's not brumating. Her temps and humidity are all the same as they were the previous years. I've adjusted her lights so they go off an hour earlier than her normal winter lighting to see if maybe I can prompt her into brumation.
Is it normal to skip a brumation period? She seems healthy otherwise, just...I can't figure out why she's still awake so close to January. Previous years have had her asleep by December.
