Are you raising a turtle for the first time? If your family belongs to the northern region, it's time to hibernate now. The turtle itself has a physiological sense of hibernation, and if you feed your turtle and it is no longer eating, it is going to hibernate.
Turtles need damp sand for hibernation. For domesticated terrapines, there are several hibernation measures available:
1.Bury them in damp sand, taking care to ensure maximum humidity in the sand.
2.Cover their bodies with damp gauze (experience of Shanghai turtle friends shenwei 2000).
3.Keep them in shallow water (this is not recommended for semi-aquatic turtles such as the yellow-edged box turtle).
4.Put them in a wooden box and cover it with damp straw (Wuhan Kamiyu Junko's experience).
Hibernating terrapids are also examined from time to time. Note: Do not use dry sand, be sure to ensure high humidity, otherwise you will die of lack of water. Note: The ambient temperature during hibernation should not drop below 5°C, otherwise you should die of excessive freezing.

Generally speaking, turtles do not have an accurate hibernation time When the water temperature continues to be lower than 13 degrees, turtles enter the hibernation period Before hibernation, be sure to give the turtle sufficient food to ensure that the tortoise's physical energy can safely survive the winter If the supplementary food is insufficient, the turtle may die during the hibernation period The tortoise will not eat during the hibernation period The tortoise and the container should be placed in a cool place Cover with a rag Keep the rag moist Do not disturb the tortoise during hibernation.

Hibernation is based on the ambient temperature, I'm in the north and it's around 15 degrees now, my yellow-edged turtle has started to burrow into the soil, but if you feed it it it also eats. But it is best not to feed at this temperature, so as not to cause digestive diseases. Now you can take a bubble bath in warm water around 28 degrees Celsius every day when the temperature is a little warmer, which will help to defecate and cleanse the bowels, and then prepare the hibernation environment and wait for hibernation.

Let's use shallow water hibernation!
The water is more than 1cm deep on the back armor, put it in a dark place, don't touch it, don't have strong light!
Remember to clean the stomach of the turtle before hibernation, otherwise it is easy to get gastroenteritis!
Method, bathe it with warm water every day, don't feed it! It's in a week!

The main thing is the temperature, ask how many degrees your house is now, if there is heating in the house, it will not hibernate in winter.
-
Turtles are one of the few animals in the house that hibernate and are cold-blooded when the temperature drops below 10. Most of the turtles in the north do not hibernate in winter, and live their own small days in the warm heating room, but the turtles in the south have a little hard time, although the winter in the south is warm, but the temperature in the indoor house without heating is only a few degrees, not only people have to rely on a righteous body to survive the winter, even the turtle has to enter the state of hibernation. Except for where the indoor temperature is cold, turtles hibernate, and most turtles do not hibernate in winter.
Turtles do not hibernate in a warm space and maintain the same lifestyle as usual, but they do not eat, which is a big deal for the shovelers. If the turtle does not eat or drink during hibernation, it can regulate its own body functions during hibernation. During this period, the shoveler only needs to play a supporting role, providing a comfortable hibernation environment.
But if there is no hibernation, the shovel officer will have to take responsibility during this period to help the turtle through this difficult period.
The reason why turtles do not go into hibernation.
In addition to the temperature factors we mentioned above, there are many other factors that prevent turtles from hibernation now, but this does not mean that turtles are sick or in danger.
-
The reason why turtles don't hibernate is that the temperature is relatively high, and there is no temperature that needs to hibernate them, so they won't hibernate.
-
This should be caused by the relatively high ambient temperature.
You can try it outside.
-
The average temperature is 20 degrees Celsius, and you will not hibernate if you don't eat, and you may not eat because of the temperature difference.
If the average temperature is below 18 degrees, don't feed it. 15 degrees begins to slowly enter hibernation.
It enters a shallow hibernation at about 10 degrees Celsius and a deep hibernation at about 5 degrees.
If it is below 5 degrees, it is best to move it indoors.
With a temperature of 0 degrees, it will die in 2-3 days at most.
In addition, indoor hibernation is relatively safe, and it is always about 5 degrees colder.
Why turtles don't freeze to death in the wild is because turtles like to bury themselves in the soil. Even if it is covered with a layer of snow, it can survive under the mud.
The weather is not too cold yet, and the baby turtle does not want to hibernate yet. Generally, it does not hibernate because of the weather, and it will still hibernate when the weather is cold without heating. Unless heated feeding.
You can eat it.
If the room temperature is relatively high, it will not hibernate. Not hibernation is not harmful to the body. Baby turtles, in particular, are not suitable for hibernation.
-
Turtles need to change to a dark and dry environment for hibernation, and my tortoises usually hide under the sofa or bed before hibernating. If the room is hot, it will occasionally wake up halfway through to drink water and eat something. The balcony is too brightly lit to fit the hibernation of tortoises.
-
It's best not to let the turtle hibernate, that would be tantamount to killing the turtle... It's best to warm up for the winter... Turtle hibernation is just a way to reduce metabolism due to poor conditions in the wild... The conditions at home are good, why let it hibernate??
-
Turtles do not hibernate in winter, and the keeper needs to keep the turtle in a special incubator and control the temperature above 15 to prevent the turtle from hibernating. Although turtles do not hibernate, they still need to supplement their nutrients to promote their growth and development. It is also necessary to dry the turtle in the sand, if it is watered regularly every day.
In order for the turtle not to hibernate, the keeper first needs to control the temperature above 15 to prevent the turtle from hibernating. Breeders can keep tortoises in special terrarium boxes, which are convenient for constant temperature rearing.
Although tortoises do not hibernate, keepers still give tortoises nutrients. Giving the tortoise plenty of nutrients is not only to survive the winter, but also to promote the growth and development of the tortoise.
When the tortoise is not hibernate in winter, the keeper also needs to dry the tortoise. Keepers need to prepare clean and smooth sand for the turtle, the sand can keep the turtle warm, and the turtle can be moistened by watering it regularly.

1.The tortoise can not hibernate, as long as it maintains a temperature of 20, it can safely survive the winter.
2.Hibernation is a habit of turtles, and there are two main reasons for hibernation, the first is that after the temperature drops, the vitality of the turtle is affected, and the metabolic level will also decrease.
3.The second is the lack of food in the wild in winter, and there is no food to eat.
4.And there is no need to worry about such a problem when bred in captivity, so the temperature can be raised and it can survive the winter in a warm environment.

Domesticated tortoises can not hibernate, tortoises hibernate because of the lack of food in the natural environment, and the temperature is low, the environment of domesticated tortoises is more suitable and can not hibernate. In winter, the turtle can be placed in a turtle tank to hibernate and the water temperature will be stabilized above 20. In order to avoid discomfort for the turtle, it is also necessary to check the water temperature regularly and increase the temperature in time if it is found to be low.
Domestic tortoises can not hibernate, and the reason why tortoises hibernate is because there is no food in the natural environment and the temperature is low. Domestic tortoises, on the other hand, do not need to consider this aspect and can not hibernate, but need to stabilize the room temperature above 20.
In the low temperature environment in winter, the turtle can be put into the turtle tank for hibernation, and a heating rod can be placed in the tank to stabilize the water temperature above 20 to prevent it from entering a state of hibernation. Note that turtles that have not hibernated may have a weak constitution, so they need to change the water regularly and increase the time they spend on their backs so that they can survive the winter smoothly.
In addition, in order to avoid excessive changes in water temperature and cause discomfort to the turtle, it is necessary to check the water temperature every 1 time, and if the water temperature drops, the water temperature should be increased immediately, otherwise the turtle will enter the hibernation period. And before changing the water, the water needs to be connected in advance, and the water temperature and room temperature should be kept consistent before use.

Excessive temperature: Turtles may not hibernate because the temperature is too high, and the temperature is one of the important factors affecting their hibernation. If they live at a high temperature, they will not go into hibernation.
Too much light: Turtles may not hibernate because the environment is too bright, they like to hibernate in a dim environment, and they will not hibernate when the light is too strong.
Uncomfortable environment: Turtles do not hibernate because of the uncomfortable environment in which they live.
Tortoises may or may not hibernate, but different breeds have different habits. Most tortoises hibernate in hibernation, but captivity cannot simulate the living environment in the wild, so it is best not to hibernate tortoises when they are young. If it is an adult turtle, it can go directly into hibernation.
In addition, there are some breeders who breed tropical turtles, which generally do not go into hibernation, so they need to be continuously heated when breeding to prevent them from hibernating.

There is nothing wrong with turtles not hibernating.
When the temperature drops below 20 degrees Celsius, the tortoise begins to hibernate. During hibernation, metabolism in the body slows down, digestion stops, circulation declines, and immune and other self-protection systems slow down or stop. These changes can lead to the invasion of some diseases, so it is best for the owner not to hibernate the frail turtle, because there is a great danger of hibernation without enough fat.
If it is a turtle that can hibernate, you can release the turtle on the sand, burrow deep into the sand, cover the surface of the sand with warmth, and keep it moist, and check it once a week. The next spring, when the temperature reaches about 15 degrees, the turtle will emerge on its own. Newly resuscitated turtles are weak and should not be fed in large quantities.
In the season when the weather is changeable, you should pay attention to the change in temperature.
It's okay to bask in the sun and pay attention to feeding.
-
Turtles hibernate with a temperature limit.
If the room temperature does not reach 12 degrees Celsius or less, the turtle is not in a state of hibernation, and the sick turtle and the young turtle cannot hibernate.
Generally, novices who have just started raising turtles say that they hibernate.
Not necessarily when they actually hibernate.
Because novices will not tell if the turtle is sick or hibernating.
As long as the sick turtle is sleepy, it gives people the illusion that it is hibernating in winter. How to tell if the turtle is sick and lethargic or whether the really healthy turtle is hibernating depends on it.
In the past, eating normally was not and the spirit was better.
Do you have any white swelling in your eyes? Are there white spots and signs of peeling on the extremities? Do you open your mouth to breathe, and your breath still makes a sound? Are there bubbles in the nose? Observe and I'll break it down for you.
There are many reasons not to eat, 1The weather is cool, the water temperature is low, and the turtle will increase or decrease its appetite with the change of temperature2Sick.
3.Just bought it back and was not familiar with the environment.
4.The food doesn't fit well.
The two most important points of raising turtles are to keep the water clean and the temperature of the water to keep the temperature constant, the temperature in spring, summer and autumn should be at least 22 degrees or more, or the turtle will catch a cold.
-
The absence of hibernation may be due to high indoor temperatures. If you don't hibernate and don't eat, you won't die. Keep it indoors, in a basin. When the temperature is reached in the spring, it eats.
Turtles are ectothermic animals that cannot maintain body temperature and will change with the ambient temperature. If it is in the natural environment of a temperate zone, when winter comes, its body temperature will drop to normal activities and foraging, so it must hibernate. To some extent, in the tropics, turtles do not hibernate.
In a hibernation state, the turtle's metabolism is very slow, the consumption of nutrients is very low, and there is no problem not eating food for a winter.

When do turtles hibernate?
-
It's okay for a turtle not to hibernate. Because it's likely that the temperature in your home is warm. If you want to call it hibernation, you can put it in a colder place and you'll be fine.
It just doesn't hibernate and there's nothing bad for it, if it's alive, you can give it something to eat to see if it eats, turtles generally don't eat in winter, so it's not very normal, you just need to change the water for 2-3 days.
-
Which of the following critters hibernate other than baby hedgehogs? Does the tortoise hibernate in winter?
-
Yes, as long as the temperature is not lower than 30 degrees.
-
Turtles are animals that want to hibernate, but the temperature is above 30 degrees.
-
It shouldn't hibernate.
Our family's tortoise.
I've been raising it for three years.
When we rent a house and there is no heating, we put it in warm water and feed it, and when we are full, we put it in a slightly warmer place.
Basically, take it out every day, put it in warm water, let it move for a while, and the heating is very warm when you get home.
The guy himself became active.
So I've never hibernated.
If you put it in the fridge in the summer, he'll still hibernate.
As long as certain conditions are reached, turtles will hibernate.

My tortoise sleeps in the east!!
It's all sleeping, but sticks its head out when there's sun.
What's your temperature? Don't touch him around 15 degrees, if the temperature is still high, it will be dangerous, and you may get sick. >>>More
This is the Brazilian tortoise.
Omnivorous semi-water turtles Alien species are very damaging to the environment. >>>More
Your tortoise's constitution is so poor that its shell is soft or dented, indicating that its body is quite lacking in nutrients, and it seems to be almost empty. >>>More
My family also raised three turtles and turtles, I don't know what kind of turtle you raise, according to my experience in raising turtles for several years, whether it is a turtle raised in the water or a tortoise, the digestive system of the turtle is slower than that of other animals, do not feed it food every day, especially the food of meat, digestion is very slow, in addition, it is the water used by the turtle and turtle, it must be placed for a few days before it can be used to feed the turtle or put it in the tank used by the turtle and turtle, the tap water is directly used in the turtle and other animals are harmful to the stomach and epidermis, in addition, If you are a tortoise, it is very omnivorous, and in addition to the occasional meat, you can choose vegetables and fruits. If it is a turtle that lives in the water, it is good to feed some small fish and shrimp. Hope this helps.
The first person, carved into life, lingers.
