I live in Spain, the days shorten and temperatures have dropped slightly. Daily temperatures may well reach 23-24ºC and night temperatures 16ºC.
They are less active, stay in the "cave" and eat less.
They know what is coming.
Occasionally the male goes after a female and tries to mount her.
How about other keepers, are your animals preparing for the winter already?
