Hello,
I have a Russian tortoise who lives outside in my warm, humid southeastern backyard during the warm months. I know that it is a lot more humid than it would be in the desert (of course!) and it rains a lot more--even though I take her in if we're going to have a week of thunderstorms she still gets a good splashing every day or two. I don't keep a water bowl in her outdoor enclosure because it breeds mosquitos, but I was wondering if I should do a weekly/biweekly soaking to hydrate her. Will the rain take care of that? Thanks so much for your help!
