It can be said that more and more people like to keep turtles in their homes nowadays, and as we all know, turtles need to hibernate too. Now that the weather is getting colder, the overall fitness of turtles is starting to decline, and soon turtles will have their hibernation period. So, how to keep a tortoise in winter? To answer this question, the following is a detailed introduction to you.

Now the weather is getting colder and colder, so many turtle keepers are very concerned about how their turtles should be kept in this winter. Some people even feed a lot of food and nutrients in order for the tortoise to survive the winter, resulting in the tortoise being very obese, which is most likely counterproductive and not only does not feed the tortoise well, but may also cause the tortoise to have health problems. So in winter, the more you feed your turtle, the better it is.

In addition, if you want to keep your tortoise well in winter, you also need to give it a good winter environment.
