>>Unfortunately, you as a keeper don't really have any option here. If your tegu wants to hibernate, it'll hibernate. Regardless of the temps, light cycle, etc...



well there are many cases of tegus that live their entire lives not hibernating, still breed healthy babies, and are perfectly healthy animals, mine are living proof, and the breeder i originally purchased them from doesnt hibernate his either, and he originally got his from agama international, and mine doesnt hibernate because shes kept at a constant temp everyday, and it drops about 15-20 degrees at night, and that is an effect of me as a keeper
