young bearded dragon brumation?

[adz83]

hey guys,

we hav a 7 month old central bearded dragon and a 4month old who hav refused feeds for the past 4-5 days......they seem rather sluggish n im assuming they r heading into brumation,but im a little concerned they are too young..the majority of the research iv done advises against brumation under the age of 12months so im a little confused as to wat i should do???

basking temps r high 30s

should i just leave em be or try up their temps n try keep em awake??

any advice much appreciated

mine went a bit slugish, I bumped up the temps jus by about 2c and i can believe the difference it made, he's back to normal now, mine is 7mths and i was really worried about what would happen if he went into brumation, this is my first winter with a reptile

One of our guys has slowed down and will only eat occasionally. Not sure if it is a brumation thing, or if the other lizard is domination him.

how old is it tinky?

Tinky is over 40. Thanks for asking.

My Dragons, Elvis Jnr & Bolt are 23 weeks.

They were the same size for first 16 weeks.

Now Elvis is 23cm and Bolt is 29cm.
