The cool thing about being teacher is having the summer to mess around with your pets. Problem is, when its time to go back to school
Ok, I have 2 normals from Bobby's July (3 I think) hatching. They are doing pretty well, not eating as much as I've read, but doing pretty well.
Every day, my routine consisted of taking them out of their 40 gal tank (waiting to put them in the 8x4x4 I've built), and feeding them in the bathtub.
problem is I go back to work tomorrow and these guys are asleep by 4.
So it looks like I'm going to have to abandon my feeding routine, and also looks like I wont see these guys until the weekend.
So I guess my question is if everyone else's burrow down for the eve that early? I see some posts say yes. And if so, is this a year-round thing, or is it close to hibernation time?
And in my case, now I guess I must just drop some food in their enclosure in the mornings before I leave?

[QUOTE="robnpg, post: 69613, member: 58"] The cool thing about being teacher is having the summer to mess around with your pets.
