Hi! I have 2 baby (6 mo) Sonoran Desert tortoises inside. I have had them for about a week, and really don't know much about these little loves!
There is a heating pad and a light on one side of the terrarium, where it averages about 85 degrees.. which they seem to love! The other side is cooler and contains a hide where they can escape. I was wondering if I should be leaving the heating pad on 24/7? I turn the light off at night and it goes down to about 80. I would appreciate any advice to help me make these little ones happy!
