Mine do that and then get shoved into their hide
But then perhaps i shouldn't do that as it takes away their choice but then if we refer to another thread regarding the intelligence of tortoises then are they actually making an informed choice or just being too lazy to move???!!?? |

Do they not think to themselves "I can't be bothered to move, lets sleep here tonight" though? They know the light will be back on tomorrow and they'll want to be there again anyway, seems like an informed choice to me

Good point - so the argument for tortoises being highly intelligent is definitely growing
