Personally I wouldn't risk putting it back into hibernation. Especially not after a bath! People seriously need to research hibernation properly. The box method kills loads of torts over the yrs but people still use it! Why?

Mine are fridge hibernated at a stead 4c. Better safe than sorry I say!
Can you provide some information as to the box method killing tortoises, please?
