my russians are now up due to the crazy New Orleans weather, but my males eyes are closed and suken. i looked back at some of the pictures from last year and discovered that his eyes always sunk in more than usual, but his eyes are seldom open.

is this a side effect of hibernation?
could he dehidrated?
could he just still be cold?

i put a light on them today to see if this will remody the problem.
any opinions?
