Typically when a reptile is put into a new environment with things it is not used to or has never seen (like soil, for instance), they will investigate it for a day or two, and eventually leave it alone. Maybe if you had given it a little longer, the baby torts would have stopped licking/eating the soil? I'll give mine two days and see.
