yes i do. this morning she ate a chicken gizzard, like i said she acts the same and has pretty good weight on her. i first thought maybe she was stressed out but i think that can be ruled out.i was just worried that keeping consistent temps might cause her to lose weight,she likes to hide from time to time i designed her enclosure to give her a few hide spots. but usually she hangs out in her water and then she will hit a hide spot and spend the rest of the day there. it mainly depends on her, sometimes she may spend most of the day/night there and sometimes she will spend most of the day/night in her water. last winter she ate consistently,but i was told that was because she was younger then, now at a little over two years old and about three feet she is starting to act older if you know what i mean. anyway, i think you are right the seasonal thing makes alot of sense, in fact i had a guy at Glades Herps tell me the same thing. any other advice that you might think of please share,i am always open to others advice.
