Russian not eating and burrowing

[Beebuns]

My 14 yo Russian has been a good eater, I got her last spring. Nothing has changed in her habitat, it's winter here but I've made sure her habits has stayed the same temp.
Lately she hasn't been eating much at all and all she wants to do is burrow under the dirt or under the mat in her home.
Any advice or things I should check?

It's natural for your toet to want to brumate/hibernate. Reptiles can sense changes in barometric pressure regardless if you keep the habit toasty. It's natural for them to want to brumate. My leopard geckos will do this as well. Even though the house and their enclosures are worm, they tend to go off food and want to stay in their hides.

Burrowing or caving is normal. As they normally brumate at this time of year you will need to keep it fed and warm throughout forthcoming weeks. Check the care sheet and settings to ensure there is not a wrong bulb or incorrect temp that is causing it to hide.
