I have been doing soaks once a day (or every other) to help keep him awake. Sorry I can't help, best of luck.

But he burrows right under his heat lamp , which is odd to me . Thanks for the feedback so far everybody !
sibi said:I think in your case, the Russian is burrowing because it's cold where he's at. They like the cooler temps, but if it gets too cool, they'll want to burrow for the winter. Do you have him in a garage or inside? If in an enclosure, what are his temps?
