I have seen a few posts about soaking Leopard tortoises. I wonder why. My tortoise hates to soak, I only soaked her when she was covered in poo. That was when she was little and kept inside.
She is pretty big now. She doesn’t like to be wet. She has the run of my yard and is always away from wet areas. She actually just left her favorite area because I was hosing it off. She was quite indignant that her favorite place got wet. I live in a hot dry climate and only bring her in when it gets really cold in the winter. She really hates it when I bring her in.
But back to my question. Why soak?
