Okay, so to clarify and make sure I am doing the right things I have some questions
1. When can I put Boulder outside for the entire day while I am at work? We are building him a secure pen in our yard. It will have plants for shade, water to soak and drink, food bowls, grass and plants to munch and a hide in the corner.
2. If Boulder spends 6-10 hours a week outside does he need any supplements? I have heard he doesn't need calcium if he spends enough time outside, but I don't really understand that. As of now he has cuttlebone in his pen. He eats, spring mix, grassland tortoise food (waiting on my Mazuri shipment), green leaf, pansies, cactus flowers, squash, romaine and grass.
Thanks so much, I always know where to turn for help
I forgot to mention I live in the desert the high right now is right around 100, between 95-104 everyday
