For people who live further north where we have actual cold weather, after soaking your torts in warm water do you put them back outside immediately? I'm in Illinois, and after I soak squirtle (three-toed box turtle) it seems off to put him back in his outdoor terrarium immediately. I know that personally if someone picked me up and put me in a hot tub only to take me out when its 60° F I wouldn't be thrilled. He seems to take in stride however and moves around on the hunt after I soak him. Also, I've seen him enter his pond of his own free will when it is in the 60s or 70s and see perfectly happy with it.
How does everyone else treat their shelled compadres after a good soaking?
