Hi there, Kenno! Welcome to our lovely little community!
Your tortoises are beautiful and I sincerely hope that you show us some more pictures! The photo of Alex the Climber made me smile; he's very adventurous! My female Russian tortoise, Hazel, is pretty troublesome in similar ways! She adores climbing and exploring; I could sit and watch her all day.
I'm no expert, but I would say just to make sure he has the water available, maybe turn on the sprinklers once in a while to make more run off for him. you could put a shallow pan out there for him to get into if he wants to. I doubt he would tolerate formal soaking just because he's never done it.
Hearing is vibrations on the eardrum interpreted by our brain. Torts do hear , in fact have "ears" Tortoise ears don't look like ours. - there is no ear on the outside of a tortoise's body. But under the scales on the side of the head or neck behind the eyes is an eardrum. You can often tell where by looking for a dark spot.I've read somewhere that they cannot hear but feel vibrations. In that way they can sense people walking by etc.
