Bath Time = Penis Time

[Cicitina]

Ever since my tortoise flashed me a couple months ago, without fail at EVERY bath time it has to make an appearance is this normal for a tortoise that’s newly discovered himself? Or does he just really love the feeling of water down there

Apologies on the graphic photo for reference, but I can’t be the only one that has to live with this imagine trapped in my mind

Hum, I think it's just a "natural Process/reaction" to being in a warm soak. Or may be just trying to "rinse it off" . . .

Lol they usually do this when they first discover themselves and flash. Usually they get over it and stop after a while.

Wow not had that! But I guess you get used to it. Maybe make the water cooler to see if that stops it

You are not alone. Almost every soak my tort gets his out and swishes it around in the water. I think it just feels good.
