I have a pair of RP Manni.
First off, they do not hibernate. The digging under is their every day natural behaviour. They seek out damp leaf litter when there's no water around in their natural habitat. So you gotta care for them all year round.
Mine mate ALL the time and always in the water...I just learned they dont have a set season either. I have one happy couple hehehe No eggs, she's about 6.5", he's 6". I think the max is 8" for ladies.
Ya needto feed more than that, big variety they need. Mango, strwberry, shredded carrot, zuchinni,...chunk of apple..banana...and of course greeeeens. romaine or green leaf goes here.

keep the humidity up and the substrate moist!
