***Edit**** Just found out from the vet that he has coccidia and pinworms. I have posted a new topic under health********************** Thank you.
I feel like just as soon as I think I know what to do, he does something else.
Fireball went into what I think is brumation four days ago. He was in the same spot for the whole time sleeping on and off but never moved. I felt like he was getting dehydrated so I picked him up and soaked him for 20 minutes and then dried him thouroughly today. I placed him back in his cage and he is now basking (104 degrees).
My question is: How do I know when to feed him again? I don't want to feed him and have him go back to sleep. I have heard that the food can rot in their stomachs. Thanks for any advice.
