Hi all,
Thanks for your advice there.

My heat lamp is over some stone slabs which heat up very hot, must be well over 30, but this doesn't seem to make any difference to them. The rest of the table is just covered with newspaper. They have branches, and terracotta pieces to hide under, and a dark covered area, which they sleep in now.
I also have a bright UV lamp over their table.
One of them comes out briefly in the mornings, eating a few bites, but the other 2 just sleep.
If I want to keep them up should I wake them and give them a bath, even when half asleep?
If I fully hibernate them would their low weight provide enough reserves to keep them alive?

Sorry about so many questions, but I have not had hatchlings before.
Thanks again.
