The red-faced mud turtle can hibernate or not. Whether it hibernates in winter depends on the water temperature conditions in winter. Generally speaking, however, red-faced mud turtles do not hibernate. The origin of the red-faced mud turtle is in the tropics, and the water temperature in winter is not too low, so it may not hibernate under natural conditions.

When breeding red-faced mud turtles, it is best not to let them hibernate state, Because the red-faced mud turtle is very sensitive to the environment in the state of hibernation, if the red-faced mud turtle is not careful, it is easy to die. Therefore, when breeding in winter, the water temperature can be adjusted to more than 20 degrees, so that the red-faced mud turtle can survive the winter safely.
