i hope this in the right section...?
our hermanns tortoise is living outside at the moment... he has a large enclosure with a modeified rabbit hutch for sleeping in.
some of you may have seen pictures of our enclosure on the site previously.
anyway, the hutch has a lamp inside it... a red uv heat lamp.
i was told today that i can actually leave this lamp on 24 hours, and it wont interupt sleep paterns? which in turn would mean our little guy can live outside for a lot longer in the year, and jsut come inside when the winter gets... really uncomfortable.
any opinions? hes out there right now... and hes still under it... tho he is sleeping... hes jsut not in his normal spot...
help!
