TT, that's a fabulous idea, perhaps run it like a diary, when you stop feeding, when you stop watering, and so on.......

With this great weather though i am reluctant to consider hibernation! The winter monthsa are long enough without thinking of it now in any great detail anyway.

I too will be a hibernation first for me with my present tortoises, I hibernated tortoises as a youngster in the 70's and early 80's but lost them every time so yes I will be bricking every second of their first hibernation, but thankfully I have, like everyone else a fantastic support group in this forum. Thanks Guys.
