Hi!
My little tortoise is doing great, She already broke the 100g mark, she's been with me almost 4 months now and went from 64g to 105g and from 5cm to 10.5cm on her shell. She arrived with slight signs of pyramidism on her irregular scutes, but the new growth is smooth and slowly catching on. Anyway, it is getting really cold, and I can't find a spot in the house where I can keep the temperature high enough to soak her, I used to do it in the bathroom but not even there is warm enough anymore, I tried putting her bath inside the shower with me while I'm taking a bath but she gets really nervous with the sound of the water and the bathroom extractor fan....I don't want to stress her. Would it be fine to stop soaking her until the weather is a little bit better? she has free access to water in her terrarium and the humidity is always between 60 and 90. Or should I keep trying to soak her in the shower and let her get used to it?
