Hanging out on cool side a lot

[NikkiC223]

So I've noticed Teak has been hanging out on the cool side for the past two days. I'm sure he goes to the warm side at some point but every time I look, he is on the cool side. I have checked, re-checked, and checked the temps again and they are at a stable 92 degrees on the warm side. I use a infrared thermometer so I know its accurate. Just wanted to know if this was normal for them to hang out on the cool side a lot. He is eating (every other day), and he is pooping normal. If anyone has any insight, that would be great, thanks!

It could be 'brumation.' Captive reptiles still brumate sometimes at this time of year. I know a lot of people have been having the same experience with their leos recently (mine did this a few weeks ago). As long as he's still eating (maybe slightly less) and pooping and not losing weight, you don't need to worry. Here's an article on it:

Thank you! I actually did look up brumation and kind of figured that maybe that is what he is going through. I'll read the article as well! Thank you again
