Hey all!
I am a former zookeeper, so I have taken care of Leopard, Galapagos, and South-American Red-footed before, but this is my first tortoise baby of my very own! I've attached pictures of his enclosure in case anyone sees anything drastically terrible. The heat source is a ceramic coil. The food he has is a spring mix from the grocery store with some grass clippings from my yard and a couple crushed up ZooMed Grassland Tortoise pellets mixed in. I'm trying to get him to eat the yard grass, but he seems completely disinterested
What's the best way to keep the humidity up? I tried soaking his log hideout, but that didn't seem to do much. Any help would be greatly appreciated. So happy to be joining a community with so many helpful, experienced people
