African spurred tortise (sulcata) Hibernation?

Posted by Chris on November 20, 1999 at 10:46:03:

HELLO,
I have a 3 year old sulcata approx. 13 inches. it has
spent its first year outside this year and is very
healthy with great appetite.
My question are: Does the sulcata have a hibernation period.
If it does not, can it adapt.
What kind of outdoor temperatures can it
stand in the winter (Phoenix, AZ.).
Do I need to bring him back inside?
please respond soon, thank you for your time,
Chris
