Tortoise behaviour

[prowsie747]

I am new to this whole forum thing so forgive me it my topic has already been answered

I have 2 baby long necks between 3-6 months in age and I am trying to understand their normal patterns so I can ensure they remain happy and healthy

I would like to know how they sleep and what are their characteristics ?
Do they find a quiet spot in the tank ?
Do they close their eyes ?
How long should they be sleep for?

Thanks in advance

Hello and welcome.

What species are you referring to and where are you?

She called them 'long necks'. probably Snake Necked turtles....

Yes. There are lots of turtle species with long necks. That's why I asked for the species.

As I'm also new to the whole tortoise thing I'm not 100% sure of their exact type, hence the pic
