Hi all!
I’ve just joined this site and need advise as I read so much different stuff on what you should do and you guys seem to be very knowledgeable.
I don’t have a tort yet, hopefully in the next 2-3 months when I’ve got a new place to live. I have decided on making my own enclosure which will be 4ft x 2ft to start with. So if you don’t mind, could you answer me the following questions? I would really appreciate it!
Do you guys recommend using a combination bulb for the light and heat? If so what about the other end of the enclosure if this is cool?
Do you need there to be heat all the time or can things be turned off at night?
What can I use that is safe to treat the wood? I am in the UK and America seems to have so many more diy shops than here!
Do you use a silicon to seal the joins of the wood? If so what would you use?
Does it matter if you get a male or a female or so they both have the same temperament?
I’ve read so many different things and I’m so confused. I want to make sure things are perfect before I get him/her. I’m so sorry for the million questions!
Many thanks
Sam
