He's the right age to be brumating for the first time. If you can't/don't want to follow the original post about brumation then it's best to leave him to sleep in the cool area. All things being equal, not being monstered, ill, or really off his food due to a moult coming up, then he'll doze for around 3 months then brighten right up again.

hi
think one of my beardies may be preparing to brumate - he is 12 months old. mind you he is so inclined to laziness i couldnt be definate. im more interested at the present time in if anyone knows if blue tongued skinks do this. mine is a bit off colour, not feeding much - he eats his salad and took a pinky from me the other day and a couple of waxies but wont even contemplate his locusts and he generally loves them. seems to spend a lot of time in the cool corner of his tank

I think Moriarty is going into brumation too. He hasn't moved much for the last 4 days, sleeps most of the time, ignored livefood, even big fat juicy cockroaches and just sleeps behind his big bit of bark. Is it the right time of year?

I'd have thought it a little early - October would have been my guess but as I don't know what your weather has been like it is quite possible that they are starting to slow down now.
