As I currently live in apartment Shelly doesnt often get to walk around on the grass. So, I grew some grass seed in a little tray and within days the grass sprung up!
And here is Shelly on her new 'field' of grass and loving every moment! :D
Depends how far the light setting is! I have 75w but I also live in the UK where it is cooler! For the UVB bulb its not measured on wattage! Dont know if this helps!

Getting her dried off so she can sit under the heat!
I got her from a garden center in Chesterfield, UK, thay also sell other pets (rabbits and mice) and reptiles :( I was told she was about 1.5 years old. :)
its an old wooden storage box, my boyfriend cut bits and bobs out and we added some plastic runner for the plastic windows :) first attempt and it all went rather well, and Shelly seems happy enough! hehe
