Hello everyone! Recently over the past few weeks I have noticed Petie to reduce the amount he is eating daily and he is not as active as he was when the weather was warmer. He lives indoors and his terrium stays around 70-72° on the cool side and around 85-88° on the warmer side (anything warmer and he avoids the warm side).
Our weather has recently shifted to only being in the 70s outside and we keep our over all house temp between 68-70°. I am wondering if reduced eating is typical "wintery" behavior or of he is showing signs he wants to hybernate?
He is a Russian Tortise I inherited roughly 5/6 years old to an adult (I've heard BOTH ranges)
