I'm just wondering at what size/age should you move your baby to a tortoise table? I've got my baby star in a 50 gallon with a 3/4 enclosed lid, closed all the way at night. It seems like an okay size for him for now (he's about 2 1/2 inches).
I plan on building a large tortoise table for him, but I would like to wait until I know what sex he is to get a better idea of how big he's going to be. There must be a balancing act between keeping the little guys in a easily controlled tank, and giving a growing tort more room at the expense of lower humidity.
What size do people normally move them from a tank to a tortoise table? I don't want to keep him cramped, but I don't want to give him less humidity too soon. I live in a very dry place.
Thanks!
