Tom, I was wondering at what age or size do you stop with the bathes?
Never. I soak babies of every species every day until they reach about 100 grams. After that, I start skipping days now and then. By the time they are 5-6", I'm usually down to 2 or 3 times a week. Large adults get soaked less often in winter, but 2 or 3 times a week in summer.

I found the video guys, it's 40 min so just watch on your free time or before bed. I've searched YouTube for hours for a video like this and couldn't find any. If you know of other videos like this, please share. All I wanted to see is tortoises in the wild, but that video is hard to find, but I found this video. These guys spend like 6 weeks studying tortoises in the wild all over southern n western Africa. Nice video, many species, enjoy...

Great video!! What an amazing life this family leads! Thanks souch for sharing.
