hi! i’m planning on starting to build an outdoor enclosure (i measured the area at 10ft x 3 or 4ft) for my ≈1.5yr old redfoot and just wanted to know if i’m missing any crucial steps. first i’m thinking of pouring boiling water on the area to kill any ants or anything that might be there. then...

thank you! i bought some cypress mulch today to use instead of forest floor bedding and am planning on moving her over to a new enclosure where i could hopefully keep better humidity. i am currently using a fogger on a low setting which seems like it overdoes the humidity.

hi, i’m a new tortoise owner and i saw these little white spots on the middle of my redfoot’s plastron. is this some sort of fungus or shell rot?
