Bathing

[LittleLove]

The 3rd : I had forgotten : I soak my fred everyday, but every time I go to put water on him, he absolutely hates it. And then to boot he seems like he is mad at me???

Well like I said he loves to soak now. Does any of your tortoises fall asleep when they soak??

 

[The_Four_Toed_Edward]

Not mine, he is a wild caught Russian and they rarely fully relax when soaking

But I think @Tom says that if you soak tortoises from hatchling they learn to really like it.

Yeah well I think Fred likes it too much. I get worried about him cause he does fall asleep.

Sound like you have to keep an constant eye on him. If he always lays down in the bath maybe you should lower the water level.
