I have 4 horsefields, do they all hibernate together in the same box or separately
I'd rather you separated them.

Please post pictures of your torts as well as their enclosure(s).

Kindly read the "beginners' thread" and the different care sheets.

And a very warm welcome to the forum!

Hi Shaun and welcome.
Can't offer any advice as my tort doesn't hibernate,
You may find info on the caresheet for Russians as mentioned and if you use the search facility that will throw out a lot of postings about it too.

Best to do them separately. And best to use a fridge for correct, consistent temperature.

How long have you had them all? Have you been caring for them all for at least a year and if so have you been feeding and hydrating them for tha entire time preparing them for the down time?
