Video of Boo the Greek tortoise bathing

I made a short little video clip of Boo bathing yesterday - I thought you might enjoy it!

Boo is most likely an Antakyan Greek tortoise. We love him!

Thank you!

Boo is one of my rescues. He's a captive bred (hatched 2005) Greek... the old owner got him as a baby, but after 2 years of proper-ish care, she kept him in the yard tethered by a ring drilled into his shell in the Summer, and the rest of the year in a tiny 20gal aquarium without UVB.

He's a bit on the small side for his age - only a little over 5 inches, 480g. Hopefully he'll catch up in time, with good food, UVB, and in his nice big tort table!

Beautiful little one!
