Tortoise dance

[ZEROPILOT]

My RF male always climbs into his water trough as I'm filling it and I recently sprayed him with a jet of water on his butt to get him out. To my amazement, he raised his rump up in the air and wiggled it back and forth.
Now he turns around and waits for it each day.
I have a very funny video and I can share it via email or text.....
Does anyone else gave a tortoise that dances in the water?
I am completely unable to attach the video here.

My tortoise does not dance in the water, though she will stand higher when she is sprayed. She likes to shake her butt when I scratch the back of her shell. Not too sure why...I thought it was a mating thing, but if a male is doing it too, beats me.

Both of my tortoises shake their butts when rubbed. And my sully raises up real high if I rub her shell right by her head. Too funny.

Donny is a booty shaker as well! So cute

Wonderful stuff.
Tidgy likes a shower in the summer, but is a little more sedate.
Bit of stretching, but doesn't dance, sadly.
