My boy is being abnormally lazy?

[ZacharyLeesWife]

My boy is named Little foot, he seems to tuck himself in and go to sleep really early, hours earlier than normal. Could it be a seasonal thing? Otherwise he's doing great, no changes in mood or appetite or poops... Nothing has changed with his setup, heat or light schedule all, same diet too. He's nearish to a window, but no direct sunlight. Could he be noticing the seasons changing? I added a pic in case I'm missing anything but he seems otherwise healthy!

Winter affects?

That was my first thought. I'm not sure how he knows, but he does!

There are a lot of subtle changes they can see and feel with winter coming on. Just make sure he is well hydrated and does not have something else going on (sores on lips, eye problems, proper suplimentation etc.).

I had to, I'm sorry...

He can definitely notice the daylight and weather changing (although he probably doesn't realize what snow is)! More likely, he's noticing it's darker earlier and is proactive about getting ready for lights out. You can try having his lights turn off a little bit earlier so he's in tune with natural light, but he should be just fine either way! Like Matt said, keep an eye out for anything abnormal. Sleeping much more than normal can be a sign of something going on.
