>Quiet, Tortoise Sleeping

>

Herman does like a kip. Yesterday evening we were looking at him as he had burrowed his head under a stick. We were wondering what he was up to, but after a few hours, it was bedtime so I picked him up and found he was fast asleep. I set him down by his welly and he slowly woke up and wandered into the welly for more sleep.

    Admittedly, sleeping was more exciting than the football last night…

    He’s only a baby tortoise. He needs to sleep. And what else is there for a tortoise to do with its life anyway?

    Is it the winter when he’s dormant? If dormant means what I think it means.
