I was trying to keep them awake Daryn, with songs and stories mostly as they won't take any notice of me ! nature takes its' course, none outside under cover are eating at all. It is a bit early but will let them burrow. Some go down in Sept most years. One December time and is slowest to get up, only one out and about today even though bit of sunshine. CB

Mine are the same CB. Teela has already gone, I lost that battle last week. All the rest are very slow and not feeding at all. Only Maurice came out for a look around and a bask on the hill. Lived in a viv Georgia has done herself a nice scrape for the night so I don't think she will be long. It will be baths and weighs all round this weekend x x x. Hugs x x x

omg its stair rods here. She is back into the pre hibernate mode which is annoying as she gorged herself on weeds at the weekend. I think Julie Leopards are easier as rain sun shine you know they will be up & eating ! CB
