Sorola mud turtle is a very wide range of turtle species, they live in the wild species, there are also artificial breeding species. For wild species, whether they hibernate will be affected by water temperature conditions. If the water temperature is still in a relatively high range in winter, they will generally not hibernate and will remain in a relatively active state. But if the water temperature drops below 10 degrees in winter, they will enter a natural state of hibernation.
The same is true in captivity, and Sorola mud turtles can also hibernate or not in winter. Farmers can control whether they enter the state of hibernation by adjusting the water temperature in winter. It is suggested that they hibernate in winter, so that they can get enough rest in the state of hibernation.
As mentioned above, the Sorola mud turtle can hibernate or not. But the timing of their hibernation is less certain. The distribution range of Sorola mud turtles is relatively wide, and the temperature difference between different places is very significant, which leads to their hibernation time is not necessarily. Generally speaking, they begin hibernation in October-December and end hibernation in February-April. The situation is similar when they are raised in captivity, their hibernation time is not necessarily, they can adjust the time they enter hibernation and end hibernation through water temperature regulation. However, it should be noted that the water temperature should not be too low during hibernation, and the lowest temperature should not be less than 2 degrees.
