I have a 10 month old sulcata; he has him box with light and a temperature of 80-90 F (27-32 C) but lately she sleeps in him house, eats and sleeps. It is normal ?

Thank you

Hello and welcome.

Babies do sleep a lot, but he or she might be sleeping too much of there is a problem. Much more is needed than a box with a light. Can you post pictures of the enclosure and explain more about the type of heating and lighting?
