When you say "rotate" do you mean mixing around or swapping to another substrate?

I usually spread water along the edges of the enclosure making the top soil of the edges wet and Rocky has been using the hides closest to the corners which is probably how this has happened, it stays dry on the top for the most part with yes the soil underneath being wet, so I'll just have to...

Do you have any cream recommendations? Unsure if a strong acting one is good or not.

First time Tortoise Owner here, I got this baby a few months ago and it's now about 7 months old now. I've been really cautious and wanting Rocky to get used to their environment and not freak them out but clearly I should've been less cautious and more concerned cause it seems Rocky has shell...

Currently my temperature is at average 85 to 88 (F) and Humidity at 80+ for the most part, It's been dropping recently but that's because I keep opening up the Enclosure to shift things and feed and such. Been adding more water to the substrate to keep it above 80 though.

Thank you @Markw84 for the lovely Enclosure! Thank you @Littleredfootbigredheart , @Alex and the Redfoot , and others I forgot to mention for all the help and information before I got my little one! I'm sure I will have lots of more questions in the future, so expect to see my posts still haha...

Thank you so much! You're all very helpful!

Hello everyone! It's been awhile since I've posted something on here, as I've been collecting everything I can to make sure my soon to be new baby redfoot is as happy as can be. I am happy to say that I have received my Enclosure from @Markw84 and am more than satisfied with how it turned out. I...

I think I'll go for this that @Alex and the Redfoot recommended to me if it still applies to this enclosure: https://www.tractorsupply.com/tsc/product/producers-pride-brooder-and-coop-heater-1299682

So when it comes to Toad Ranch, is there a quick list of essentials that can be given to me to make my redfoot tort the happiest? By that I mean is there a heater/uvb lamp that fits best into the enclosure, I think I'll go ahead with the Arcadia Reptile Pro T5 Kit, Desert 12% UVB, 24W, 24"...

Time to start crying and just bite the bullet on a Toad Ranch and then upgrade in the future once I have a lot more money lol

Oh wow that's interesting! This is what shows up for me:

The issue I've been having is I just genuinely don't even know what to get. Everywhere I look is another opinion on what "needs" to be done, I was gonna stick to a plastic container but I don't see any for sale that big, so now this is what I've been looking at and I don't even know if it's any...

I have been looking around at enclosures as I want to introduce a new baby redfoot and I wouldn't mind spending this amount of money for a temporary home as I would like to have more torts in the future. However, I was wondering how would this enclosure be for a temporary home for a redfoot...

I honestly have no idea, just was looking around and sent that. I completely understand what it takes to house one of these tortoises and how much space it will eventually end up taking up. I'm willing to give it the room it needs. I plan to be out of the home I'm currently in and moved into my...
