Hello.I bring Digger our of his hide every morning and he enjoys the basking light and nibbles on his lettuces/greens/cactus and (yummy) squash. He is not eating a lot but he does eat..but then runs back to the hide to dig down in the dirt under the blanket of timothy. I took the temp today and the nest he has made is about 68....can I close off the hide for a determined amount of time to "make" him stay our of the hide or is he just doing what RT's do this time of year? The basking light is 100 watt over his terracotta plate - the temp is around 95 so I know it is warm enough. I had been giving him a warm bath every other day but it looks like a 5-10 year old can go longer..... I think I was going every other day just to make sure he was up, drinking and not slumbering. I might ask: since he doesn't seem to want to move around much this time of year, would it be easier to control the temps and lighting in his old 20 gallon instead of this open torty palace??? He isn't benefiting from the area right now and I seem to be having trouble keeping everything within range to keep him moving....the lady at the pet store said it sounded like he was just normal but I still worry. The Digger man is a good litlle buddy and I don't want to do something wrong.... . thx...appreciate all the advice :0)
