Smile young horsfield like a old man

just a quick question about my squirt, do horsfields like to drink as every morning when lights go on he tottles straight to his water dish and sits in it like we would have a shower to wake up then he gets out and eats breakfast then he goes for a drink i mean big drink is the house is silent he sluprs its cute,he is fine in health no visible symptons to worry me he has allways done it,im finding it cute its like watching a little old man get up dressed and have breaky, do your horsfields do this?>
when i first seen him drinking i was a little concerned ad i thaught he was dehydrated but he continued to do so his temps are all fine its just his thing, supose its like his sense of digging he is only small and hasnt tey masterd how to tunnel him self in properly yet he has allways gone to the same corner of his table and dug down a little bit then goes to sleep ,his head is usualu facing down over and back end up he cant get any deeper down as he allways chooses a corner to dig bless him,
o dear i have done it again im a chatter box totaly gone off subject, will shut up now lol

Ha Ha brilliant story, all of mine look like little old men..even the girls..that's why they have human names! My old girl Tammy has a habit of chasing anyone who dares to get in her enclosure out by running at them and biting, then slinking off in discust with us! They are all strange wonderfull creatures x

Yes I will swap with you, I will have your Owen, and you can have my stroppy teenager Courtney!
Your tort must love you very much to leave you such a lovely gift! Or maybe just didn't like your choice of foot wear!! By the way I let my torts roam in the house when it's raining. x
