How old/big is she? What are your overall temps in her enclosure? Sometimes a tort remaining in the heat source alot of the time can be an indicator that the temps in the remainder of the enclosure just are not comfortable ....I would check there first and if you have a very young tort that also can offer up a bit more "shyness"....

I am not sure on the age? The room temp is 22.3 and the temp in her enclosure is between 30/34?

Those temperatures are fine. Does she eat when she goes to the food? Does she seem otherwise healthy? It could simply be the season.

Yes she eats lots

Then I would not worry. Probably just the season.
