What type of tort is Crumpet?

The transitions of going into hibernation and coming out takes more than a few days. I don't feed animals going into hibernation for a few weeks as they slowly cool down. Food can rot inside them while hibernating.

How cold was the frig?

Make sure to soak in water to keep hydration up.

good luck,

jbly
