I have looked through the forum to see if this topic has. Come up before, and it has. But there was never an answer to it.
I have a 5-7 year old adopted Redfoot. All my temps, humidity, diet and exercise are good. He is out of his enclosure for 4-6 hours a day for exercise. I have noticed in the past that he likes his shell rubbed. Didn't seem to be anything out of the ordinary. 2 days ago i was soaking him and took a soft bristle toothbrush to his shell. He went crazy. Pushing up against it. Today, the same thing. I was drying him off with a towel. It does not matter where i touch his shell, he goes crazy. He will push. Almost like he is trying to tell you to scratch harder...anyone have any ideas?
