My Tegus did not hibernate last year and it looked like that nothing was going happen this year either. They did start to slow down a little in November and my females were spending a couple days at a time in their hides/dens. My male has only been down one day. The females only take a bite of food once a week or more. The male eats small amounts every other day and sometimes daily. The male is house trained has been outside for 30 minutes or so a couple times in the last week since we have been having nice weather. I need some advice on if now is a good time to start warming them up and bringing them out of burmation. The basking temps are 89 to 90 degrees, ambient cage temp cool side is 70 and goes down to 60 degrees at night with the rest of the cage.
