I posted a while back as I was concerned about my 2 year old tortoise when the temperatures had dropped in our awful UK winters. My tortoise was hiding for most of the day despite temps and humidity being fine.
He is now getting himself up in a morning and I am giving him warm soaks daily. He is eating like a pig and passing urates. He is still putting himself to bed around midday but generally has a wander first. He seems healthy and has steadily gained weight since October. He was 86 grams back then and today weighs 113 grams. Will be glad when spring arrives and he can return to more normal behaviour.
