Reptiles are a class of animals know as cold-blooded. This means they can't regulate their temperature by themselves. Mammals, being warm-blooded will sweat or pant when they get warm or shiver when they get cold. Reptiles can't do either of these. So when it gets cold, they become sluggish.
Reptiles are not very active during cold weather because it is to cold for them too move. They like to stay warm instead.
