: : Hi Eric,

That has been one of my questions all along...

You say:
Last year, for whatever reason, he chose to go away from the basking light and to burry himself in some hay. From Dec. to Feb. he stayed under the hay.

Don't they have to empty their stomachs first? Sounds like he did OK... But isn't their prep to do?
What if my tort decides to do the same thing?
I am planning to overwinter him as well.

Dec to Jan.... What is your winter weather like there?

Thanks for all your help.
Leslie
