Hi, I've just purchased a horsefield tortoise. I'm having touble with the basking temperature. I have a single 100w bulb with heat and uvb but everytime I take the temperature its always around 22- 25 degrees Celsius. I've already adjusted the height and its at the minimum as I have read that it can't be below 12''. Am I measuring the temperature incorrectly? Where should I point the thermometer? lol. He was very active and eating well today but for the last few hours he has been hiding in his cave which I thought may suggest he's too hot. So confused.
