Every year at this time my Desert Tortoise is up early trying to get out of his enclosure. He is relentlessly climbing flower pots, walls and just about anything trying to get out. He is so persistent that I have a hard time of getting him to stop and eat and almost have to feed him by hand.
I used to think he was unhappy with his burrow because I’ve built him a new one almost every year up until 3 years ago, but now I think its maybe be more like instinctive although I’m not sure. I haven’t found anything on this behavior to suggest it, but does anybody know if Desert Tortoises migrate this time of year?
