Hello all,
First sorry for my english.
I'll try to expose Dino's problem in the best way.
Dino is 5 years old https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red-footed_tortoise .
He arrived some months ago.His owner told us that he was not able to look properly at him so Dino went home.
With the owner infos Dino is suppose to be a male.
During summer Dino was alert in his inside and outside home.
And when winter start to arrive in Québec Dino seems to live slowly.
I think he can feel that there is less daylight & temperature are colder
Now there is 3 week he is sleeping in his den (an old tree root).
He's moving his leggs so I know he is alive.
There is heating and UV lamp (+ 1 pad heater).all this set is on opposite place where he's sleeping.
His den his dry and colder.
I'm just a little bit stress because redfoot are suppose to not hibernate?
And in case he is doing this what are the good rule if he wake up (food? drink? etc...)
thank a lot and I wish all of you an 2017 happy new year
