1. Hibernation is usually caused by shortening the day and lowering the temperature. The living environment is not good for reptiles, causing turtles to hibernate. However, during hibernation, turtle's metabolism slows down, digestion stops, circulation decreases, immunity and other self-protection systems slow down or stop.
2. One week before the tortoise hibernates, it should stop feeding and put the tortoise in warm water, otherwise it will cause food and feces to accumulate in the body when the tortoise hibernates, which will easily cause gastroenteritis.
3. Before the turtles hibernate, they should be provided with a suitable hibernation environment. You can find a container, put mud or sand in it, and then put the turtle in it.
4, and be sure to keep the hibernation environment suitable. First of all, we must ensure a high humidity, otherwise the turtle will die of lack of water. Moreover, in the hibernating environment, the temperature should not drop below 5℃, otherwise the tortoise will freeze to death.
