Pet reptiles have no reason to brumate but it is an innate behavior therefore their body tells them to do it. Brumation is a natural thing that is completely safe for your healthy reptile to do. In the wild, some reptiles, like bearded dragons, may brumate to avoid cold temperatures and the lack of food and water. In captivity, even though their light cycles and food may stay constant day after day, their biological clock may take over and tell their bodies to shut down for awhile.
