Torty gets up within a half hour of the lamp going on, but is usually back in bed by 2pm

percy is usually woken up by me turning his lights on at 7.30ish and then naps throughout the day as he is a lazy bugger, he then has a big spurt of energy and plays in the evening usually 6-7.30ish...

i turn lights off at 8 and he usually settles for bed for 8.30ish

My lights go on at about 7oclock and if its bright outside they will be up/stirring before they go on. The same applies to the torts in the greenhouse.

Fluffy gets up within half an hour of the lights going on, he has a bath, eats then goes back to sleep. (unless he is in the garden of course, then he is whizzing round all day!)

Lights go on at 7am, Betty and Norm usually awake just after if not before, Nuggs and Scooter will sometimes lay in until 12 midday!

My lights go on at 7am but Baron is always up and stomping around looking for the "sun" before hand! My OH leaves for work at 6:10 and we have now started turning the lights on when he leaves as Baron is sitting there waiting for them to come on! He's very demanding don't you know!
