Can I put my awake tortoise in the fridge ? Posted: 23/10/2011 by Adey |

Hi, I have had Speedy for 45 years (Med Spur Thighed?) but last year was a worry - weatherwise. He is a little dozy at the moment so I put him in the fridge with all the boxes packing and thermometers and he then popped his head out and opened his eyes!! My questions. Can I put him in now at 5 degrees or should I put him in at a higher temp - say 8 degrees? Is it ok that he is put in awake? Thanks very much - great site. Adey | |

Sorry what I also meant to say - because he opened his eyes I then promptly took him out of the fridge again. My nerves got the better of me!! Can I put him back in as per last post. Confused ? Sorry. | |
