Well she looks fine.Bright skin, round limbs.

Is there a way to prevent her from hibernating at all or at least preventing her from hibernating for so many months?

I have tried every trick in the book to wake her up.I gave her warm baths but she slept again inside the water. I turned on her uvb lights but she didnt pay attention to them and continued snoring.Today i put her hot box ( an wooden box with a bulb inside) inside her sleeping cage.Lets see what happens. She is sleeping since january!!!
