Am I right in thinking that on a relatively chilly day my tort will get nice and warm indoors and then maybe decide to go outside , it may be warmish outside but as temp of day decreases the torts body temperature will also decrease and it may then run out of energy to actually get itself back indoors ,so just hunkers down in the ground wherever it happens to have found itself? ( sorry that is a very long single sentence!!)Nope. I sometimes find leopards parked in a corner on a night that will drop below freezing, instead of in their heated night box. Sulcatas are pretty good about going into their night boxes on their own every night, but when they are new to the enclosure, or the night box is new, they sometimes just park outside.
My russians usually retired to their boxes, but not always.
