Hi everyone! Last Thursday we had severe rains and 4 of our desert torts had to be dig up from there natural outdoor burrows, the ground was so saturated, that they were all covered in mud, so continuing hibernation outdoors is not an option at this point. I'm having a hard time keeping them cold enough indoors, they get restless at times, and 2 of them have urinated since I brought them inside a week ago. How do I go about soaking a hibornating tort, and what temp is best to soak them in. And also, what's the highest air temp they can hibernate in. We are desperate, and are not set up to keep them awake indoors for the winter. All suggestions ate greatly appreciated! Time is not on our side. Thank you for any input on this matter!!
