    Flash (Hermanns Tortoise) has buried himself and not moved for just less than 24 hours

    Awesome, I have just ordered some of them, I will also be removing the pellets and ordering some of the substrate suggested. Also I appreciate you warning me about letting him walk about on the floor! Thank you so much! Also about the fruits, I haven't actually fed him one single fruit yet...

    Flash (Hermanns Tortoise) has buried himself and not moved for just less than 24 hours

    Thank you! I will provide some pictures right now, So where the basking side is, I tend to keep it around 32-35c heat and then where the lamp is not there, I tend to keep it between 20-25c Now at night time, I turn off all the lights and it sits around 17-20c He has one big water to bath in...

    Flash (Hermanns Tortoise) has buried himself and not moved for just less than 24 hours

    So as the title says, Its the first time my tortoise has had soil instead of the little pellet things what was provided when I bought him a couple weeks ago, I replaced it yesterday during the day and pretty much since then he has just buried himself and not moved, is everything fine here...

    Heat mat and heat lamp at same time? Hermanns

    I have read it should be around 32 Degrees celius on the warm side where the lamp is, now when I turn that lamp off at night will I be okay or will he be to cold if it drops the warmth?

    Heat mat and heat lamp at same time? Hermanns

    I have both a heat lamp and a heat mat installed and was wondering will I need them on at the same time? The cage is pretty decent size. Just bought Him(Flash) today he is two years old.
