I've found her!!!!! Well my dog found her this morning
She's been missing for almost a month; I'm so so please
She seems fine and is eating well, I was really worry as some days/nights have been really cold and overcast and I thought how she would manage, being a tropical tort and all.
so it got me thinking how did she cope with the cold temps? it's definitely been below 10c most nights here. Can reds slow their bodies down into a kind of temporary hibernation to cope with the temperature drop? Could she in fact hibernate if I didn't find her and she was left out over winter? Or would the minus temps kill her?
