We have three one year old Russian tortoises that have recently gone outside to enjoy the beautiful Arizona fall. Although it doesn't get very cold here in the "winter", temperatures can drop to the 40s at night. My other Russians and one Desert tortoise(s) have outdoor burrows with heat lamps. I want to confirm with fellow enthusiasts that year old Russians do not hibernate. I believe the age of 3 is when they start??? Thanks for the information
