House lizards, which are also known as common house geckos, do not hibernate or brumate in the traditional sense.
Hibernation is a period of inactivity and reduced metabolism that some animals enter during the winter months to conserve energy. Brumation is a similar state of reduced activity and metabolism that some reptiles enter during the winter, but it is not a true form of hibernation.
House lizards are tropical reptiles that are adapted to warm temperatures, and they do not experience the cold winters that trigger hibernation or brumation in other animals. Instead, they are active year-round and can often be seen basking in the sun or hiding in crevices and cracks to regulate their body temperature.
That being said, house lizards may experience periods of reduced activity and appetite during times of stress, illness, or low food availability. This is not the same as hibernation or brumation, but it is a natural response that helps them conserve energy until conditions improve
