what happens if my turtle is gravid and goes into hibernation
Every morning I wake Up the turtle water is very could I am afraid they will go into hibernation due to cold water how can I change this please help

[johnrisky]

You can just use a heater to change the water temperature? and it is spring right? I think unless you are in the north pole, it can't be that cold? and if you don't have a heater, you can take her out of the water at night.

If the water is that cold, are you sure the turtle has eggs? Those kinds of temps would not trigger her to lay eggs.

[jasoncop954]

Yes I am 100% sure she has eggs

How cold is the water actually dropping to? Turtles dont go into hibernation until 50 degrees F
