If the temps are a little lower than the norm, your tortoises will adjust in time.
With careful monitoring you will be able to tell if its really affecting your tortoises. Or you just have to adjust too:0)
Its hard when we all have a system that works, and then suddenly it changes.
You have to change as much as the tortoises.
I remember when I went from boxing for hibernation to letting them dig down in my GH soil. It was scary, but I have never looked back, neither have my tortoises:0)
As long as they are acting normally, eating, drinking and coming out to bask, then its just a matter of time for you both to adjust. Monitoring is the key.
Tortoises are a lot hardier than most think:0)
