Default Inactive beardie, Brumation?

Over the past couple of weeks, my beardie has been extremely inactive. She's been spending pretty much all day hiding at the cold end of the viv sleeping.

I've recently moved her to a new viv but she's still hiding away all the time. Its kind of worrying as she's not basking or anything so i'm not sure if i should be feeding her.

She's about 9-10 months now and is normally a good eater, but she hasn't eaten anything for the last couple of days, mainly because she's always sleeping.

I was wondering if it could have anything to do with brumation, but after reading the sticky on here, she's probably too young to get in to that and its not really winter anymore.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks
