Bathing/Soaking

[jodemiah]

Hi everyone. I have a one-year old Hermann who I have religiously bathed/soaked every day for 15-20 minutes since she was a hatchling.
Now that she is a year old, growing and eating well, can I cut her soaks down? I have found conflicting info on the web.

I don't see why not. Every other day should be fine as long as their humidity levels are good.

I let the urates tell me if mine are hydrated. My russian does not soak her self and hates water. I soak her every other day and her urates are creamy when she passes them. My sully is just over a year old. She soaks herself for hours a day, has 80% humidity and passes no urates from what I see so I don't soak her at all. Not sure if this is the "right way" but it works for me.
