Probably just so cold he's vegging. Mine spend the coldest weeks at the
bottom with eyes shut. Usually they stir if I bring them up but go right
back to sleep.

The weather here in Philadelphia, Pa. is around 50 degrees so today was a good
day to clean out the leaves in my pond from the fall. As I was netting out
leaves I accidently netted my turtle who has been in the pond since last June.
He wasn't moving and his eyes were closed. I put him back right away. Do they
overwinter or is it possible he is dead?
