Hello - they're all brumating

Hi Everyone,
Have not been on this site for many months. Life has been very busy. All my mob are brumating. Well, most of the time. The blotchies haven't been out for months but the shingles occassionally poke out their heads and it's very cold here in Melbourne !!

Hi Laurie,
All of mine are brumating too. My eastern has been out for a while now and my shingles only recently went, when the days are a bit warm and sunny, my shingles come out a little bit, but recently the weather has been so cold and overcast that they don't come out at all. This is my first winter owning blue tongues and I gotta admit, being a long term dog and horse owner it is the strangest thing for them to be inactive,and for that to be normal lol. I do find myself peeking at them asleep and checking they are still breathing haha.

One of mine is hiding away too. He's been out for about a month. I peek in on him occasionally too :)
