Hi. It is a very cold week here in England and I have just made an outdoor enclosure for my current tortoise Billy and another tortoise arriving in Wednesday (Carly). The grass is damp and Billy is just snuggling up inside his sheltered house. I have put a towel and some ripped up newspaper in there to keep him warm. I would bring him inside but Carly won't be able to come inside as her owner INSISTED she is kept outside 24/7 this Summer. Do you have any suggestions as how to keep them warmer?Also a heating mat is off the list as the owner said it is bad to have heat coming up from under their shells. I don't want a little iced tortoise or (tortoises). What would you do?
