Hi, you can let your torts out in the garden whilst the sun is out, but bring them back in when it goes shady, as it still has tendancies to go very cold even frost up over night. Could you add a ceramic heater (looks like a bulb but doesnt light up) in the hutch, they would use the hutch then, you could leave them out then, but I think its best to shut them in the hutch at night to protect them from rodents and possibly foxes.
