Always great to see tortoises start utilizing the water we keep available for them.
Yes. Giving them a variety of objects to interact with also gives me a treat, as I get to see them behave as they might in their native habitat. Its always fun to sit out there and watch then roam around inspecting every corner, or roam up and down the stream looking for bugs. I've always had a slight fascination with water, which motivated the stream/pond. This is why I favor redfoots. Beside their calm(er), "social" personality, and vibrant colors, their tropical/subtropical environment provides an interesting area for landscaping. I put social in quotes, as they display a range of social behaviors, but I hesitate to call them social as we all know tortoises are solitary creatures.
