The tortoise is an ectothermic animal, so it is normal not to like to eat in winter, its metabolism is affected by temperature, not only will it not eat, but it will even enter a state of hibernation. At this time, there are generally two options, one is to keep it cold and let it hibernate, so that it does not need to be fed. The other is to raise the ambient temperature so that it can restore its appetite and feed it regularly.
In winter, because the temperature drops, the turtle will slow down the overall movement of the turtle, and it will not eat. If the owner wants to let the turtle feed or not let the turtle hibernate, you can use a warming rod, heater, etc., to keep the temperature between 20-25 degrees Celsius, you can restore the vitality of the turtle and let it feed and move normally. And because of the temperature, the turtle will not hibernate anymore.
Under normal circumstances, turtles will starve to death if they do not eat for about a month. Turtles are actually more hungry, but healthy turtles may starve to death when they do not eat for more than a month, which is due to the fact that if turtles do not consume nutrients for a long time, the turtle's body will be weakened and its resistance will decrease, which will increase the chance of getting sick and even lead to death. If the turtle does not eat, and is accompanied by lack of energy and inactivity, it is recommended to take the turtle to the doctor in time**.
The duration of starvation of turtles is related to age and whether they hibernate or not, generally the larger the turtle can tolerate the longer the hunger last, on the contrary, the younger the turtle will be hungry for too long will be easy to die, the general turtle may starve to death within ten days to a few months, however, the turtle is in hibernation if it is in a state of hibernation. The amount of time you can last is much longer, possibly for months or even years, mainly because hibernation lowers metabolism.
Under normal circumstances, turtles will starve to death if they do not eat for about a month. Turtles are actually more hungry, but healthy turtles may starve to death when they do not eat for more than a month, which is due to the fact that if turtles do not consume nutrients for a long time, the turtle's body will be weakened and its resistance will decrease, which will increase the chance of getting sick and even lead to death.
