Hi,
Our Hermann tortoise "Bruce" has just recently started to take him self of to an area of his enclosure that is far away from the heat lamp?
I sometime leave him be and just keep an eye on him although from time to time I will pick him up and put him where its a bit warmer.
Sometimes he'll stay there but other times he'll make his way back to the cold area.
Is this normal or not? I thought they like to keep warm.
He appears nice and healthy in every other respect.
Bruce is we belive about 16 months old.
Cheers,
Simber
