A little confused on soaking

[daylalee]

Tori is 3. Should I be soaking her reguarly? and if so what is a good reguarly schedule? She always has water to drink. What is the purpose of soaking? Do they absorb water through there shells? Gotta make sure I am taking really good care of her!!!! She is so sweet and deserves the best.

This is a matter of personal preference. It won't hurt anything to do it daily, but it probably isn't necessary. I still soak my 3 year old everyday, but I was also fighting a bad case of pyramiding.

We soak all of our hatchlings twice a day in warm water for several months. Our young ones and yearlings we back of to once every couple of days. I agree with Tom it won't hurt them at all to soak them daily, but a three year old should not need it that often. Fresh drinking water at all times is great.
