Hi,
This is a silly question...But, Do tortoises like thier head
rubbed...My little over 1yr old redfoot totoise 'Sage' seems to really like his head rubbed..When I rub his head, he sticks, strains his head out higher to touch my finger and will let me rub his head.. Is this a sign of actually liking his head rubbed or some kind of instinctual behavior??? Does anyone else's tortoise like thier head rubbed???

Thanx, Shawne1
