I over wintered a rescue horned lizard, and it was really hard to rehab it because they bog down on their eating. The trouble is, he would stop eating and lose weight. From what I have read, horned lizards are really better off hibernating, but that isn't necessarily true of all lizards. With bigger and less stress prone lizards like chucks and beardies, they slow down in winter and sleep a lot, at least they do here, and they don't eat nearly as much, but they don't lose weight.
