Hi to all!

My soon to be wife jiji send me some photos of dobby today with a concern about bubbles in Dobbys mouth.
Dobby was taking a soak then she took her outside for 30 min of sunlight and then back to another soak but in the second soak she started to have bubbles in her mouth. Is that do to overheating or something like that or just playing with the water???

And the bubbles

Charlene is going crazy!
The photos of the bubbles were taken like at 2 0'clock and by now they are going away.

Just have her go over all the important stuff in the habitat...lights, heat, humidity, etc. If everything is where it is supposed to be and the tortoise is still acting normal and eating, then just wait and see. Usually overheating shows up as a foamy mouth, not bubbles in the water.

Thanks! Probably it was nothing serious. Maybe was the change from being outside in the sun and then into the water.
