Do corns get less active as it gets colder and we have shorter days? All 5 of mine seem to be more quiet this last week, even Peanut who is usually happy trashing his faun for 5 days out of 7. I don't know if its due to a winter wind down, or because I haven't been having them out so often these past few weeks due to decorating and preparing to move house.

Sometimes they do yes, they have been known to put themselves down for hibernation, staying off the warm end, not eating, generally a lot less active.
Its not a problem and is perfectly normal.

Mine actually do the opposite, they are more lively in the autumn/winter for what ever reason. Maybe it's to do with the heating my house though?



A very special super, duper thanks for K :3

Well found out why Carmellia is possibly more quiet than usual. Looks like she might be going blue again. Its only 4 weeks since she last shed so wasnt expecting it. Peanut has made me out to be a liar as I got up this morning to find his cardboard hide upside down again half in his water bowl. I'm sure he doesn't like where i put it
