Tortoise Bathing
Posted: 05/02/2010 by ben123

Hi

I have recently made my tortoise table bigger and it can now accommodate a shallow bathing area.  The tortoise appears to love sitting in it but now I wonder if he will be OK even when the water goes cold as he does not seem to mind.  He can sit under the basking lamp at any time but prefers to sit in the bath !  Any advice would be great.

Hi Ben,

Are you the one with the horsfield? If so then it is strange as all mine hate water Click and drag me down to the editor Im sure he will move of he doesnt like it. I have a baby that chooses to sit in his water and fall asleep so i just remove him and put him to a warmer/dryer spot.
