Depends, if it is not warmed up but placed back into it's hole it will likely go back o sleep but if it is disturbed and moved about in warmth and not returned to below 50 degrees shortly it will become active although it may take a day or two. If kept in warmth with at least 12 hours of daylight it will become more active with time and totally leave the hibernating state within hours or days. Hibernation is important to hormone regulation and can affect breeding if it is not allowed to hibernate. The length of hibernation, however is not important, 4 - 6 weeks can suffice to help keep the turtle healthy and a turtle should never be allowed to hibernate unless it has a healthy weight and no ailments. Shortening of daylight hours in fall is what triggers the instinct to hibernate, the turtle stops eating and when temps decline they dig in.
