Ok I just got Kirby in last Tuesday so not even a week ago so I know it could be stress induced but he hasn't come out hardly at all he are 5 bites of turkey the first day I got him on Tuesday and then ate 1 pinkie and about 2 bites of a soft boiled egg I've been rolling his turkey into bite sized balls so I can see just how much he's been eating I've never dealt with a hibernating lizard and maybe I'm paranoid he's one of Laura's gus and is roughly 3 months old my question is can they hibernate safely at this age I'm sure it's stressed induced hiding but I'm nervous still I haven't seen him in about 3 days now and he hasn't touched any food I do know he pooed in his water bowl yesterday but I think I accidentally scared him out of his burrow because I was in there misting and he popped outta the ground and was hissing and breathing hard I left him alone and he basked a bit before going back underground I didn't dig him up don't worry any advice also how long can my baby go without eating if he's still basking?
