Hermans hibernation weight loss
Posted: 04/01/2015 by jessford85

Our 2 year old Herman has been hibernating in the fridge for 2 weeks. It's his second hibernation. 

He has lost 6g already. Should we be worried? 
All the info we can find says he shoul lost 1% a month. 
Help!

Hi again! 

Can someone with a Hermann's help please?  We are worried we need to wake him up!  He's only been hibernating for 2 weeks, and has gone from 355g to 349g.  He's 2 years old, and second hibernation.

Thank you!

A loss of 6g is not a problem Jess.
