Hi all,

I hope you can help me.

I have a horsefield and I've had him about 5 years, he has an indoor table with uv light etc and an outdoor secure enclosure but lately, probably for the last couple of weeks, he doesn't seem to like either! He gets up in the morning, warms himself up abit, hardly eats anything and then buries himself and goes back to bed where he stays pretty much all day!

The temperatures in the UK have been fluctuating quite alot lately and have been quite high so not sure if that has something to do with it but I dont know if I should be worried about him or not? Otherwise he looks fine and doesn't look off colour when he is up, he just doesn't seem to be his usual active self!

Hope you can help.

Thank you

Kim
