I just want to share some strange behavior with my tortoise. He is a Russian tortoise, between 6 months and a 1 year old. Captive bred. First day I had him he was very scared, he would always go inside his shell when my hand would be a foot away. I have had him for about a week and a half. Five days after I got him, he took food from my hand, and he also let's me pet his neck. Now I can put my hand right in front of his face and he doesn't care. I have heard stories of tortoises taking months to adapt. It seems like mine is doing just fine. IM SO HAPPY. Has anyone else experienced a tort like this before?
