I have two Greek tortoises which are very old. We have had them for 36 years but the vet says they are at least double that. They usually go into hibernation around now in boxes into the shed but have dug themselves very deep in the garden. They have done this before and surfaced in March but never during a really cold winter. I am worried we might get another Beast From The East which could kill them buried in the garden.
They have been buried for two weeks now. Am I able to safely dig them up and transfer them to a box in the shed (the usual way we hibernate them) or is it unwise to wake them up. Just worried they won't survive otherwise.
