Depending on the type of Tortoise there are different types of care fact you have to consider like if it is a desert Tortoise ( what done NOT hibernate ) you have to keep them in a certain temperature where as some Tortoises does not mater

Hello and welcome Haydn.

Did you come here to teach us all about tortoises? Do you have questions about desert tortoises and hibernation?

Hello and Welcome. There is a lot to learn on this forum. If you take your time to read through the care sheets, that's a big start and you will learn a lot.

Hi Haydn, and welcome to the forum!

Your information is a bit skewed. You can't post a generic thread about tortoises like that because each species has its own characteristics. Some of the male/female differences are like what you've shown, and some are completely different. Some hibernate (and, incidentally, here on the Forum the tortoises we call "desert" DO hibernate) and some don't. Some have to be kept in humid, jungle-like conditions, some don't.

So, I'm glad you've found the Forum. We're a good place for you to pick up all the new and innovative tortoise-keeping procedures that have taken place, and we're happy for you to participate. Read through our care sheets shown pinned at the top of the different species' sections.

May we know if you have a tortoise? ...and can we see pictures?
