Whether razor turtles hibernate well or not depends on their growth stage. Because they don't hibernate when they are in the country of origin, the breeder can decide whether to hibernate or not according to their situation or their own wishes. If it is a seedling, it is not recommended to enter hibernation. Because of their poor physique, they are easy to get sick or die after hibernation. If it is an adult razor turtle, it is best to go into hibernation when the water temperature is low.
Razor tortoise hibernates well or not hibernates well, how to hibernate 1. Whether razor turtles hibernate well or not

Whether razor turtles hibernate well or not depends on their growth stage. Because the temperature in the origin of razor turtles is relatively high, they generally do not hibernate, so the artificial breeding can be decided according to their situation or temperature.

If the razor turtle is newborn, it is best not to go into hibernation. Because of the poor physique of seedlings, if they go into hibernation directly, they may get sick or die, so it is best for young razor turtles not to go into hibernation.

If it is an adult razor turtle, it is best to go into hibernation under the condition of low temperature. Because the temperature is lower, their appetite and activity will also decrease, and they will go directly into hibernation, which can also give them a better rest.

2. How do razor turtles hibernate

Razor turtles hibernate when the water temperature is lower than 15 ℃. After they hibernate, breeders need to lower the water level. Or prepare some moist coconut soil or water moss. After the razor turtle goes into hibernation, it usually does not change water. Because their metabolism and vitality are weak after hibernation, the pollution to water quality is not serious. After they go into hibernation, the breeder only needs to spray water properly to keep the environment moist.
