Hibernation
 

Does anyone else think that sometimes there uros are hibernating? Mine sleeps a lot, or he has since winter started.

Mine would know buy the change in the sun's direction. Every year they would go into their hides and not come out for days. I would leave the timers on and stop their food until it looked like their systems were empty and then i would shut down their lighting and heating.

They would get up every spring roughly around mid March. I really miss those little guys.
