Hi all,
My 2 year old Irian Jaya (?) has been in brumation since the middle of November.. Is this length of time normal? I have heard mixed things..
Its been just over three and a half months and I holy cow I miss him! He hasn't come out much to eat or drink by himself but I've made sure he's hydrated.
Any thoughts? Thanks in advance!

Still in Brumation??

Re: Still in Brumation??
How are the ambient temps in the tank?
You can try to slowly raise his nighttime temps a bit and turning on his lights a bit earlier in the morning, see if that triggers him to start rousing.
Normally they take their ques from a lot of things: lights, temps, air pressure, etc. You can try to manipulate some of them to signal his instincts; sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.
