    Tortoise Scream, Help.

    Hi guys, I’m a new tortoise owner (Red foot tortoise) I have had him for about 3 weeks. The last two days when I have been soaking him he screams a few times. But I haven’t heard him when he doesn’t soak. He always poops when he soaks (warm water). I’m wandering if he is slightly constipated...
