Thank you for quick respond! Do you leave a plate with food for whole day in the enclosure so tortoise can eat whenever he likes, or you make them some meal-time (like 2 hours or so)?

Hey! Sorry for double post, but I'm a little bit confused about feeding hatchlings. Actually every single source I have found tells me something different. So I will ask you guys: how often should I feed my tortoises? Twice per day? Once per day? Three times per week (this is what Kamp Kenan is...

@Tom Thank you for respond. I have already spoken with 2 enclosure-makers, probably this week or next week I will get another one for younger. I'm trying to keep this substrate hydrated by puting inside 2 liters of water every week + spraying water few times each day. I will make tests as soon...

Okay, thanks alot! Now I'm going to hunt for some good offerts!:)

About thermostat, you mean to connect it with heating lamp? I'm thinking that other thing that I may do is just keep enclousers doors open, so the air circulation would be possible - except winter.

In Poland this one is pretty cheap - I bought for my hedgehog with stuff like water bowl, tiny home, substrate for 2 months, ball, carrousel, and heating bulb for like 90$. New one costs a bit less like 100$ with 2 bulb spots. But I'm wondering is it good, that it's fully closed? Wouldn't be...

Right, sorry, my bad. https://c.allegroimg.com/original/01d3cc/0e2d00f94bdca8f06b2d89bdf44c it looks like this one, but with glass doors in front of.

One more question - I'm thinking about second enclosure, and I'm not sure what is better - wooden one, or glass one? I mean, I have two enclousers at this moment, this upper is from tortoises, and lower is from my hedgehog. And I'm a bit confused what kind of those enclosures should be better...

Okay, I will post a picture as soon as I get my temporary enclosure. Thanks alot for help!

Okay. I made a little research and here's only two kinds of UVB lights: this curly one, and tube. I think i will just put frame on a piece of board and put there this tube bulb on the top of container. I was really hoping there would like each other :p One more question - what about substrate...

Thanks alot! I will do my best to separate them as soon as possible. At this moment I can make an enclosure like this: http://www.terrarium.com.pl/galeria/foto/68671.jpg would it be fine for some time (like 6 months or so)?

Oh, sorry, you are right, I forgot to write it. Temperature and humidity: basking spot: 37-39 celsius degrees, around 30% humidity other site: 28 celsius degrees, 60-80% humidity at night temperature is around 25 celsius. They were born in same farm in Czech Republic. UVB - EXO TERRA...

Hello guys, I'm new in this forum :) Since last friday I'm owner of two hermanni tortoises - one is 2,5 month old (6cm long), second is 1 month old (4,5cm long). Before I bought them, I have been reading as much as I could, but some things went out after they came home. 1) Is this normal, that...
