So yesterday I was looking into my tortoises enclosure and one of them was awake just gazing at me while the other had been asleep for some time.
The tortoise who was asleep for some time startled me as I was watching the other because he started panicky running all over his tank in his sleep. His eyes were closed as he ran the fastest I’d imagine any turtle can run and he stopped after maybe a good 7 seconds and slowly opened his eyes. He twitched a little and I didn’t know what to think of it. I thought nightmare at first because his eyes were closed. Then I thought, maybe tiny mites or something such as that scared him out of his sleep or nicked him? So I soaked him just to make sure he was clean.
Has this ever happened to anyone ?
