Do tortoises feel when you rub their shell?
They can feel their shell being touched or stroked. Turtle shells are also sensitive to heat, cold, and vibration. Tortoise shells can also be very sensitive to pressure. This is because the shell is made of calcium carbonate (CaCO3), which is a soft, porous material.
When a tortoise or turtle is in a stressful situation, such as when it is being chased by a predator, its shell can be subjected to a tremendous amount of pressure, which can cause it to crack or break. If this happens, the turtle’s shell will not be able to repair itself and the animal will have to be euthanized.

You can use a brush or a paintbrush, but the best way to do this is with an old toothbrush. The bristles of the brush will allow you to get a good amount of paint onto your nails without having to worry about getting it all over your skin.
Once you’ve got your brush and brush set up, apply the first coat to the entire nail. Make sure to leave a little bit of excess paint on the tip of your nail so that it doesn’t rub off when you take your dragon out of its cage.
