🐢 Tortoise Behaviour · 2 min
Understanding tortoises
Calm, but not boring.
Sunbathing
Tortoises warm up in the sun in the morning before they become active. A sunny spot is therefore a must.
The shell can feel
The shell is part of the skeleton and has nerves. Tortoises feel touch on it.
Digging and hiding
If your tortoise digs itself in, that's often completely normal, for example in the heat or in the evening.
In shortSun, hiding places and calm make tortoises happy.
