Don't know that it's actually a problem. Rocky goes through periods of times where he does exactly what you described. I wonder as well, but he always comes around. As long as the temps are right, he's eating, and while he's out he's active, I'd say he's fine.

Maybe it's a shortened type of brumation? I don't know. I will assume Rocky is a male? I don't know about yours, you other person but my female does the same thing. Bask, eat, run around, sit, eat, sleep. She's out all and all about 4 hours.. while my male is out all day. Is there a cagemate with your uro? Maybe that's the problem.. hmm. A lot of possibilities you know.
