I woke up to my 2 year old red foot tortoise exhibiting some very odd behavior in the middle of the night. He was launching himself against the wall of his enclosure and staying within his shell the whole time. He proceeded to walk around his enclosure with his head still in shell. I immediately soaked him in some warm water and he took his head out of his shell after a few minutes. Does this indicate any health issues?
Some more details: I usually keep his enclosure at around 78-80° F during the day 76-77°F at night. I also usually keep the hydrometer at 65+, however I saw that the hydrometer was at 55 at this time. Please let me know if I should improve temperature and humidity conditions!
