I do wish they aged more like torts. We take our little pup everywhere we can.

What you did looks great to me.

These one's I like. The rest is dealers choice. https://www.tortoiseforum.org/media/mojo.12806/full https://www.tortoiseforum.org/media/1000005670-jpg.12846/full https://www.tortoiseforum.org/media/1000006980-jpg.12847/full https://www.tortoiseforum.org/media/mojo.12802/full...

That would be great, thank you. It looks great. I can put it on my YouTube as well.

I'm a redfoot tortoise owner(they don't need a basking lamp)so I can't help much with that. I just know mercury vapor bulbs are no good for all torts.

Yes he does. 🤣

I would not use the basking bulb you have if it's a mercury vapor bulb. Those are bad for tortoises.

I have lots of cute photos of Mojo if you need them 😃

It needs some cute redfoot pictures

In my enclosure a 10% after 4 months of use at roughly this torts height it was something like 2.2, I'm running a 12% now the 10% was getting too weak for mojo's height.

I don't know if I would go less than 10% at 2ft high, with the height of his shell as the 10% gets weak it should still last longer than the 6%.

Don't use heat mats, redfoots need heat from above not below. 100w CHE's A dark Rubbermaid or bucket big enough for him to fit in. Flipped upsidedown and clutch a doorway for him. Is a good hide. He needs a flood light. A led 5500K to 6500K is good to simulate daylight hours on a 10-12 hr...

The CHE's can't be that close to the tortoise. And the closer the uvb light is to the tortoise the stronger it is so if you went with a 1ft tall one after adding roughly 3" of substrate plus the light fixtures to the top of the tortoise shell will be around 6" the 12% uvb bulb will almost be the...

No I used short screws that didn't poke through the top. I also use 2 CHE's on separate thermostat controllers. I maintain 83-84°

It's roughly 20" from mojo's shell. I mounted it right to the top. I adjust the bark level a little bit to keep the uv rays in range. It would probably be easier to hang it from some small chains so you can adjust it as needed for uv strength. With a new 12% bulb it's in the higher range of the...

Your little tort looks great. A few words of advice, get rid of the moss if they eat it, they can get impacted. The water and food dish is best to use terracotta saucers and sink them into the substrate so the tortoise can walk right in. Also the disc style temperature/humidity gauges are not...
