If it is a crocodile turtle living in the wild, it normally begins to hibernate in November of each year and then begins to Allen Su in March of the following year, but the specific time depends on their living environment. When the farmed crocodile turtle goes into hibernation depends on the breeding temperature. If the temperature at which they are raised is kept at 20 ℃, they can stay out of hibernation all winter. If they are raised at a temperature lower than 15 ℃, they will soon go into hibernation. As for when to wake up, it also depends on the feeding temperature. As long as the temperature reaches above 15 ℃, they can wake up.

The requirements of water temperature for crocodile turtles in hibernation are not high, and breeders only need to keep the water temperature between 5-10 ℃, so that they can spend the winter safely. However, they are sensitive to the changes around them, and breeders should avoid too much change in water temperature and quality. In addition, after they enter hibernation, their metabolism will be minimized, so breeders do not need to change water frequently, but only once in January and February. When changing water, we should also pay attention to the temperature difference not too large to avoid them being affected. When they hibernate, they don't need to eat, and their breeders don't need to feed. After they are in Allen Su, breeders can't feed food immediately, and try to feed them after they adapt to the environment.
