OK, how long does brumation last? Pharoah decided to sort of "shut down" about a month ago- just hides and doesnt want to eat, sleeps alot during the day (I posted a little ways down about it.). Now, all of a sudden, today he is up basking, running around his tank and doing everything that he usually did before. What do you guys think? When he first started, i didnt even know when to get him crickets or supers because sometimes he would eat, sometimes he wouldnt. for the past few weeks I have not been feeding him much. a few supers here and there, and an occasional salad that he would just pick at if i dragged him out of hiding and by his bowl. do you think maybe he's all done brumating now? he's by his bowl waiting for crickets right now, as if nothing happened.

It sounds like he may be coming out of brumation. I would start to feed him. But don't overdo it. It may just be a quick wakeup. Also you have to get the digestive track going again, and that can take sometime.
