Horsfield Tortoise Bath

Here is my Horsfield Tortoise Czar having his bath. I bath him every other day in tepid water, chin deep, which promotes them to drink and helps keep him free of muck & mud after he's been digging! They also use this opportunity to Pee & Poop. Which is good, because it means they are hydrated well, and not passing cloudy/chalky urates & while it's not overly pleasant, you can see their poop is as it should be. Mine has a 5 to 10 minute paddle every other day and he likes going into the deeper end to have a drink. Remember tortoises DO NOT SWIM, they are not turtles!! Background noise provided by my Parrot Harry.

Russian Tortoise Bathing Outside (Horsfield CB2008)

Here is my Russian Tortoise, a Horsfield, CB 2008, growing nicely and has spent an hour or two in the sun, so was time for a bath and to lift off the dry skin. Good result, though he hates being dried afterwards, he took a leak and had a poop and all looked right for him. He gets a bath several times a week, but today it was beautiful weather so he had it outside after an hour or two of taking in the rays and munching non stop.
