, the tortoise hibernates when often to move, explained that has not entered the deep dormancy condition. At this time, sleep is still very shallow, the temperature is not very low, so it will often wake up. There is no need to worry about this situation, as the temperature drops further, it will officially begin to hibernate, so it will not move. Usually during its hibernation, the temperature should be kept at about 10 degrees Celsius, which can prevent it from waking up and freezing to death.
after hibernation awakening? 1. Control feeding: After tortoise hibernation awakening, do not rush to feed first, nor put it into water. At this time, its body is still weak and has not adapted to the environment, so it needs to rest for a period of time, usually after two to three days, it needs to feed a little soft food. And slowly increase the feeding amount.
2. Sterilization and disinfection: In winter, when the temperature is relatively low, the growth of bacteria will be limited. However, when the tortoise wakes up in spring, bacteria will begin to breed. At this time, if the disinfection work is not done well, the health of the tortoise will be affected, and it may even get sick. Therefore, after feeding, it is best to soak it in potassium permanganate solution.
3. Pay attention to disease prevention: In addition to disinfection, we should also do a good job in disease prevention. First of all, the water should be changed frequently, but the water temperature should not change, which can cause diseases due to poor water quality and temperature changes. You can also bask in the sun at ordinary times to enhance the absorption of calcium through light, so as to prevent malonychia.
