Well I just found out that my greek is not an Ibera, but a middle eastern (T g antakyensis).
I wish to keep my little guy outdoors as much a possible during the summer, but I have read that some members have previously posted that middle eastern greeks easily get sick when the temps drop under 60F (18C).
Since I live in northern Europe, the summer temps can often drop to 18C (or below, especially at night and on rainy days). So my question is how true is that temps under 60F make this species sick? I know that several members here have non hibernating north african torts outside all spring\sommer\fall in the UK. This seems to work OK.
Are middle eastern greeks more sensitive than north african greeks? Are there any members here that have experience with keeping middle eastern greeks outdoors in cool climates?
