We are a bit confused. We have had our Russian Tortoise for about 2 and 1/2 years. We live in Maryland so Fall has arrived over the last few weeks. She has begun what appears to be hibernation in her indoor habitat and has burrowed into the substrate for about a week and a half. She really hadn't done this up to now. We checked on her and she feels heavy and did move her legs and head. Is it normal for indoor Russians to hibernate without it being "outdoors" cold and how long should we expect her to hibernate indoors under normal house temperatures. Thanks
