Med spur thigh tortoise. Reassurance wanted and advice on hibernation Posted: 24/10/2016 by Sian789 |

Hi I am new to the forum. We got our med spur thigh tortoise of a recommended breeder from this site. We bought the whole set up from them and have followed the recommendations. We have had our tortoise a year and a half roughly, he seems well, is active, feeds well and has baths. Unsure whether it is a boy or a girl. He or she seems to want to bite everything and everyone at the moment. Is this normal? Also we have not hibernated yet and I am so nervous about doing it and getting it wrong. The tortoise is only 2.5 years old. Is this too young to hibernate? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks Sian | |

Welcome, Your TPG breeder should ansa all of this. Try them & come back if you need to. It is not too young to hibe. for 3-4mth depending on a number of factors. Regards, Tom | |
