1. How does the Sutatari tortoise spend the winter The Sutatari tortoise needs heating for the winter. As a tortoise, it lives in the tropics, so it has never experienced hibernation, so it has no hibernation function. Short-term low temperature may be able to carry it, but it will freeze to death after a long time. Therefore, the Sutatari tortoises can only be heated for the winter, and they should be kept in an incubator at 26-32 ℃.
2. Which turtles can't hibernate1. Tropical turtles: Most tortoises and some water turtles can't hibernate because they live in special areas, generally in tropical and subtropical areas, some deserts and some rainforests. Because they have not seen winter for several generations, they basically lose their hibernating function, and some even if they can hibernate, the time is not long.
2. Young turtles: The so-called young turtles are turtles that have not been born for a long time. Such turtles are not fully developed and have limited accumulated energy, so they cannot hibernate. Usually, turtles need to grow to more than 5 cm before they can hibernate normally. Such turtles belong to young turtles, which have a wide range of feeding habits and are more energetic.
3. Sick turtle: If the turtle is sick or its constitution is weak, hibernation is not recommended, because it is impossible to cure diseases during hibernation. Once the condition worsens, it will endanger life, while the weak turtle does not have enough resistance, and low temperature may also affect its survival.
