My first winter with Torts, and am wondering about the whole "winter slow down" thing... The weather in Nebraska has gotten cooler, and I feel like my Leopards have noticed. Or, I could be dilusional, but I'm hoping not.. My torts are eating, but can tell not as much. They are active, but not as much.
They still do everything as they did before, but at a slower pace or not as much.
Am I crazy? Thoughts? Experience??
My Yvonne/Will Tort is doing FANTASTIC, and has a bunch of shell growth. My other, is good- not much noticeable growth, but got a bigger enclosure, and I never thought to get a stronger Uvb, so he plastron has gotten rather soft. Hoping with both calcium on it's food (as I did before, but he eats everything around it) and a cuttlebone that it, at times, visits, and the stronger uvb bulb that he'll be on the mend.
