Hibernation

Hey guys just a quick question, do horse field tortoises hibernate ?

Yes they do but you don't have to do it. If you do, it should be in a controlled way.
I don't hibernate mine, so I'm not the one too tell you how to do it.

i think once your tort gets strong enough, it won't hibernate if you keep in indoors in a relatively warm place
for me, i kept my tortoises inside at a temp of about 68-70 and they didn't hibernate
