He looks pretty good overall, although he does look a bit dry. Do you soak him daily or not? If not, I would recommend doing so for about 15 minutes a day to help keep him well hydrated.

He looks great! He has no shell pyramiding and overall looks like a pretty well-cared for and happy tortoise (when he's not being picked up ?).

Hi,

Adults do not need to be soaked once a day. Once a week for 15-30 minutes is fine, just make sure you offer fresh water in your enclosure daily.
