So the last few days, all Nagion wants to do is sleep. Hasn't wanted to touch food the last two days - even fell asleep in food dish. we've taken em out and he'll wonder for a few minutes then cuddle up and sleep and passes out all over the cage - Is it slowing down because of the winter and getting ready to hibernate or something?

Yup thats how it goes this time of the year for most tegus, dont expect much activity

I wasn't sure; cause the other day he was running all over the place active as can be - now hes not even eating. I didnt know if I should just keep trying or what.

appreciate it; the only thing I was really worried about was the lack of appetite and also if I should lower my temperatures a bit cause I've read they like cooler temperatures for hibernation/brumation
