Mine has done that too! I climbed on top of its hide then jumpedI've seen babies seemingly intentionally 'jump' off high places, land on their back, right themselves, then climb up to repeat.
Haha, love it.[emoji23]Eating his own **** that he shat in the garden,
then I removed it and he cleverly did a tour to come back to the same spot where the **** was, sniffed the soil then ate a mouthful of soil where the **** was...
I found my tiny 6m old russian had scaled the wooden corner of her night box to a height of about 7 inches and was just hanging there by her nails like spiderman! I don't know if she was stuck or still climbing. She worries me more than a real baby!
Tortoises don't walk round anything if they can help it.Mine does the same!! Mine decides that the easiest way to get anywhere is to just bulldoze over things rather than walking around them. I’ve found it flipped over at least 3 times because it wanted to get to the other side of the hide, but rather than walk around it, it would try and climb it.

I have always said I only have 3 types of plant in my garden
1. Edible
2. Trampled
3. Too big to be eaten to the ground or flattened
When i used to have my redfoot tortoise he used to climb untop of his hut and jump off lol. My friend who was my roomate told me and i thought he was kidding with me i didnt believe me and i was huh!!?!?!?!! When i saw it. I dont remembernbut i think it was cause i had it near his pool of water.So we all have seen our tortoise flipped at some point and have constantly laughed at their behavior. So what is the dumbest thing your tortoise has ever done?
