All my Marginatas are out of hibernation, & warming up in a bath.

They are lovely!

I agree, there aren't nearly enough Marginata owners around here. Which especially sucks to me, because I LOVE Marginatas! (I think it's the skirt...) Kymiie, keep bugging him! You'll get 'im yet! =D

When did they go down for hibernation? I'm guessing mid November!

Hi Betts,
My torts usually stop eating before Oct. Sometime in Nov. the last ones are going down for winter. Its always the second week in Feb, when the first ones start to wake up.

Oh & I second, getting you're friend to check out the forum, Its the only place I've found where Marginata owners congregate.

Wow, a tubful of tortoises!

Why are Marginatas rare?

Where is their native habitat?

Do all of them hibernate every year?
