Tis the season! Found some heavy plastic holiday platters on sale at Target that prove the perfect size for soaking smaller tortoises : ) Since they were only 3$ and seem durable I thought I'd share incase anyone else is looking for a soaking dish for their smaller kiddos. I will likely bury mine in the enclosure when I return from holiday travels as I don't usually soak these guys, just wanted to make sure they're well hydrated since my petsitter isn't here 24/7.

I use those pans they give you in the hospital for washing up. They're like small dish pans. The material is sort of flimsy, but the size is perfect.

Haha I have no idea what you're talking about but am imagining the look on a hospice patients face after finding a tortoise in his bedpan hahahahahahah. I usually use a babypool for hatchlings-yearlings because I can soak em all at once (lazy I know!) but am about to abandon them all for a while and wanted to individually observe everyone get a few good soaks and long drinks in hence the smaller dish.

Very seasonal and adds a dash of color to the enclosure. :D
