Depends on how much of a wus you are:0) :0)
My adults now live in a heated greenhouse (heated from hibernation until threat of frosts has gone) then all heat switched off. Heat put on again when temps drop. And my tortoise actually hibernate in the GH soil.
They can roam my garden as they like,but I do still check them in at night. 99% of the time they are back in the GH by around 4-5 oclock in the afternoon:0)
