Soaking

[Franks_Ma]

Hi all!

Just a quick question about Frank (our red foot). Lately he's been soaking a lot more than usual, and I'm worried about potential shell rot (the other day he sat and soaked for a few hours, usually he just kind of plays in it for a little while then hops out) We keep his tank as humid as possible (~60) and it's been a struggle to do that with our climate (super dry), and keep our temps up ~82. Just wanted to hear any suggestions!

I think he should be ok as long as he doesn't like sleep in it or anything for a long period of time, depending on if Frank is a baby you might want to work on getting your humidity to like 80% and up I believe is the right number for babies.
Your tort will be a hydrated one tho!

He slept in it the other day :/
He's about 2, but I'll work on getting his humidity higher!
