My Tort seems to bury himself every night he goes to bed. When i wake him up I literally have to uncover him to get him out. Does anyone elses tort do this? Is it normal behavior?

Like if you had cedar shavings as a substrate, that would NOT be good!There you go, Cherryman304! A self-preserving instinct is all it is and a good one too - maybe depending on what he is burrowing down into!
@aqualungs where are you coming up with your info? " 1% survival, etc. "
Yeah I mean he must feel pretty safe because the other night he just stayed out in the enclosure. It was funny because he literally just put his head down and slept right where he was all night.
Yeah because I turned the timer on to turn on the lights and caught him out of his hide just sleeping so hurried and shut the lights back off. And laughed after because it was so cute.Aww melts your heart doesn’t it. Mine did the same until an hour before lights out and crawled into a mound of sphagnum. Instinct tells them to hide, but they’re so smart they learn the feeling of safety.. I fee they do anyways.
