My Lazy Tegu...

[ColdThirst]

I have not changed one parrameter of my enclusure tempiture or humidity level, nor the light cycle, feeding routine or anything else. And now, it has been hopefully asleep under a foot of mulch in an ellaborate chamber in its house for almost two weeks now and not coming up to eat or drink this whole time. Is it allready down for the count of winter? and if so, do i have to keep turning the lights on and the heat lamp every day for twelve hours or will it mess him up? Any input from experience or first hand knoledge is greatly desired. Thank you

Well its been over two weeks now with no sign from him so hes deffinatly hibernating now. And while hes hibernating do I still need to keep the tempitures and humidity the same for the rest of the winter or what? I really need to know bc I have no idea.
