My town got hit by a BAD hurricane and I had no power for 5 1/2 days, so my year old beardie had no heat.During this time I did NOT feed him because I was worried that the food would just sit in his belly and rot.Well I have had power for about a week now and he is hardly eating! As a matter of fact he has ben sleeping for 3 days now......... it is to soon for burmation? Will it matter that he didnt "bulk" up the week before? Its in the low 60's this week.

Please give me some advice.

Thank you in advance

how old is he? it sounds quite possible that the time without heat tricked him into thinking its winter

yup, he's probably thinking he should be brumating then

It probably triggered him to brumate. Actually, my plan in case of a long power outage when it's close to brumation time, or during, is if they're big enough let them brumate. If he doesn't come out of it soon, let him brumate.
