I have just taken in my first redfoot and I am very excited about this. I am told he is a male. Approx. 7" long. I am putting together a 3x6 table for him now. It is a book case being converted. I will be sealing it with a water based polyurethane for the moisture. I have read up a bit on these handsome torts and would like to start off on the right foot. They do not require a UVB light but an aquarium plant light can be used, plus heat emmiters in place of basking lights. The substrate I believe should be a cypress mulch with spaghum moss, correct? Humidity 60-80%. Will spraying the enclosure daily if not twice daily be enough? The diet is mostly fruits, veggies, leafy greens and once a week or so some protien like worms or high quality low fat can cat food.
Any info or suggestions will be greatly appreciated by me and "George".
