its hibernation? The Brazilian tortoise begins to hibernate near the end of the year, that is, in November, and will continue to hibernate until April of the next year. People who have raised tortoises should know that because tortoises are poikilothermic animals, most of them will have a hibernation period, just because the species of tortoises are different, so their hibernation time is also different.
Brazilian tortoises will eat a lot before hibernation, so that food can be converted into fat, the purpose is to ensure that hibernation can survive without eating or drinking, so before hibernation, breeders can feed more food with high fat. The hibernation time of Brazilian tortoises is affected by the temperature. When the temperature is higher than 15 C, they will wake up. Therefore, during their hibernation period, we must control the ambient temperature around them, not too high.
Brazilian tortoise does not move or eat when it hibernates. It is believed that many people have seen tortoises hibernate, but different kinds of tortoises behave differently. Although the performance is different, most of them do not eat, drink or move. Because the tortoise's hibernation will be affected by the temperature, so when raising, we must pay attention to the change of temperature. If you don't want the hibernating Brazilian tortoises to wake up early, you have to put them in an environment below 15 degrees Celsius.
