is this topic labeled "HOT" because it creates a pun with the subject line? i don't get it.

if you are seeing condensation on your tortoise, then my guess is the one tortoise that condenses water on its carapace is much cooler than the others. then when thethe torts are exposed to water vapor in warmer air (warmer than the torts body temp), you get condensation on the cooler tortoise. either that or you have the first sweating reptile and you should breed it as a new and very expensive morph. ;^)
