Metabolism slowing down....

lateralis Sep 16, 2005 12:29 PM

During the spring and summer I noticed that my animals processed meals and discarded waste at a fairly consistent, and rapid!, pace. As summer passed I have noticed this slowing down, even though feeding regime has remained constant, and now see a 3-5 day increase in time between digestion and elimination. Anyone notice this with their own animals (including geelers)?

I will I will, so what Im going to do is monitor the weather down south and attempt to follow it. The conditions here in the desert are pretty favorable to doing so. 65 seems kinda cool though too, are talking about NT lows? I'll get some pics today, theys lookin mighty fine!
