When I first got my Tortoise I let her run around the house also, closely supervised, and I thought it was fine. I vacuumed constantly to make sure the floor was clean. That hasn't happened since but no matter how clean I thought the floor was I noticed that when I went to put him back in the enclosure that there were hairs on her claws. And I know that digesting Hericken be very dangerous. So I don't let her out anymore except in the outdoor pen. I have read a few times on this forum that somebody says they should only be in their enclosures otherwise they realize there's a whole big world out there and they will never be satisfied staying in that enclosure. I have noticed my Tortoise clause much less at the indoor enclosure and does not try to get out of the outdoor enclosure nearly as often now that I limit him sorry her to those two enclosures. I do soak my Tortoise every other day or so so I can handle her then and hand feed her one of her favorite types of leaves every day. I think what they say about the Tortoise looking for a hiding place is true, I noticed that Yurik would stay at the edges of the room and head for a dark place as quick as possible.
