I'm just making sure this behavior is normal. 4" redfoot arrived here in wednesday. Eating fine. Mixed spring greens, I have to grow the rest of the diet. and Mixed tort hay. Had a mealyworm last night (I couldn't resist) I never see it drink, or even the water messed up like it has. Humidity 65-70, basking 96, ambient 75-80. I don't see it come out of the hide box much (which is VERY humid).
I know I should expect this but for how long? I'm worried about the tort getting dehydrated.

Also is eating the sphagnum moss ok? I have it in there to keep the humid up.
