Over the last few weeks shadow has been out less and less. Feeding slowed down, and she now has not been out for 5 days. I think she has decided to hibernate early. This seems odd as last year it was the end of October before this occurred. It has been a somewhat unusual summer weather wise, though it is hard to understand how that could effect a lizard in a controlled environment (though they clearly have their own internal clocks in some regards). Last check Shadow was something like 42 or 43" long and around 7-8lbs if I remember correctly. She looks very solid and healthy so I have no concerns on that front.
Mostly I was just hoping to see more of her before she went down, as she has really become such a pleasure and quite a character. Wondering if any others are seeing early signs of hibernation.
