Turtles & Koi In Pond

[Marshall]

Short video I made of my youngest turtle and the koi that live in the turtles pond. The koi are harder to see due to the glare and they were about 3 feet down in the water but the turtle comes up to the surface and can be seen pretty good:

Do your turtles hibernate in the winter? Neat video

My oldest turtle (female) does but I bring the smaller ones in for winter cause I have an aquarium that can accommodate them but my older female is big (11 inches) and she does not like the aquarium anyway and prefers to dig into the bottom of the pond and hibernate. I have heaters that go in during winter to keep the temperature at 52 degrees Fahrenheit though.

I am really surprised that the plant survives the turtle .

I am really surprised that the plant survives the turtle .

They like to hide under them but since they are floating plants it makes it hard for them to really tear them up but they do occasionally pull off a few roots but the plants survive.
