Biting Feet

by Chris
(Nottinghamshire)

Abe our 5 years old female Hermann tortoise which ahs been part of our household for 2 years has started biting peoples toes. She will run along the carpet or kitchen floor as soon as she sees a foot!! If you don't have a slipper on she will bit your toes.


Is this normal?

She has been trying to "mate" with a slipper and squeaks when getting excited!
