I added a solar-powered fountain to my adult RT's enclosure yesterday hoping that the sound of running water would entice him to keep hydrated. It worked much better than I had anticipated. He's been in and around the fountain all day. He loves it! I've never seen him spend so much time around water. (I think he's decided he's aquatic now :p )

Just thought I'd share. If you want to get your tortoise to drink, add running water. :)

Maybe he thinks that if he hangs out in the water enough, he'll turn into an aquatic turtle :)

Haha! I think so too. :)

Pictures, please! Brand, model #, anything else you can tell us!

This is the one I got off Amazon:
Fountain . Its about 14 inches x 10 inches wide. I added some river cobbles to the bottom to decrease depth. I'll go take a picture and post it.
