Tank is almost 4 yrs old. He has a wood barn we built him 1 year ago. Temperatures dropped about 12 days ago and he has been in the barn for 10 days now. We think it's because we keep the 2 heating lamps on 24/7. We have a thermometer in there which records an average of 65-70 at night and 70-85 during the day since temperatures dropped outside. Tank is free to walk in and out of his barn. I keep checking on him because I am concerned. Should I be? I placed some kale and fruit in the barn and it looks like he nibbled a little. He opened his mouth really slow today to eat a raspberry. I tried to get him to go after food and I knew the color red would work. As I said, he opened his mouth very slow. I turned off heating lamps to see if he would come out today because it got as high as 70 with strong sun but he remained in barn. The barn has timothy hay. I'm concerned because he hasn't gotten water in 10 days. What should I do. He weighs about 45 lbs and is almost 2ft long. Thanks for your help.
