hey uh my 4 beetles have been very inactive lately and are sleeping all day, are they dead? or are they hibernating? HELP??!


Has the temperature dropped any? Most insects become less active with lower temperatures.

well it is cold as hell over here in jersey
Living just across the river in NYC, it does get cold but I have all my critters in a heated and ventilated room. Going around 68 at night and 72-78 during the day in winter. Do you have many enclosures or just the beetles?
