I was rubbing my tortoise's head today when he was taking a bath, he for some reason loved it today. He began clicking and waving his tail!!! Next thing i know a barrage of bubbles hits the water from his rear end!!! Is it possible for tortoises to fart? I've seen then yawn and have heard they can sneeze...

My 90 to 120 pound sulcatas can "toot" louder than a human. When they do it, I just hope my neighbors don't think it was me :)

the first time i saw bubbles coming out the rear end of my indian star i was shocked because i thought there's a hole/rupture in the lungs as they have a seal between there skin and the shell on the junction... and i seriously thought it was ruptured from somewhere beside the rear legs...... it scared me to death...... then i put him in a clear glass tank filled with lukewarm water and saw the bubbles coming out of the anus in the tail......... **silly me**

Lol! Great thread! The first time I caught bubbles coming from Dante's rear during bath time I was shocked! They're just so quiet, you don't think of them as the tooting type!
