That's Andy Highfield of the Tortoise Trust organization. I think the website is www.tortoisetrust.org.
Will the temperatures be low enough where you live? Will it stay consistently below 50F 24 hours a day? If it climbs into the 60s or higher during the day (where the torts are) they may wake up and then have to deal with cold temps at night. My basement, where I hibernate my russians, slowly cools into the 50s (sometimes 40s) and stays that way for at least a couple months, even if there is a brief warming outside.
Best of luck!
