North Carolina is pushing the limits. I'm In Gawgia and it's hard here in the winter depending on the weather pattern.

They can be kept out at least 8 months out of the year on a bad year.

A heated shed or barn is the only way to go during those periods.

>>I am new to this forum and I am hoping that some of you may be able to give me some advice from your experiences. I live in Raleigh, NC and I am very interested in purchasing a baby Aldabra. I am hoping that some of you that own Aldabras may live in a climate similiar to mine and can describe how you house your tortoise during cold weather. Thanks in advance!
