Hi can anyone help
3 week wind down completed I put our Tort into the fridge at approx 5.8degrees - that’s the lowest the fridge goes and he’s been in there for 2 years no problems at this temp before
The problem is every time I check on him he’s wide awake
Before this he was in the attic around 10 degrees or slightly less and was sleeping all the time
Question is should I remove him from the fridge
If so then should I feed him and continue hibernation in attic?
Or feed and overwinter ?
He’s confused me as he seemed entirely ready and was really sleepy and not eating etc before being put on fridge and sleeping at higher temp _could he be scared of the fridge ? Answers pls ASAP as I need to know what to do
Thanks in advance
