I am planning on getting a few eastern painteds for my man made pond in NJ. Will they hibernate under the ice in the winter and just shut down, or will they come out of the water and hibernate on land? The pond is deep enough that the water does not freeze all the way through. If painteds will not work could you please recommend a few other options.
