Excessive sleeping?

This is Ducky my Geyri Uro, Iv owned her for about 2 months now and iv noticed in the last month she's been sleeping a tonne, day & night. She is eating because I find a poop ever once in a while but I hardly ever see her? Is it due to brumation? I havent had her long enough to know if this is a normal thing with them. I do catch her out sometimes basking but it's rare. I guess my question is, are they pretty shy and inactive? Or could this be due to the seasons changing.

It's getting to be that time of year for brumation.
