Hi all
I am from Canada. I don't have a tortoise yet.
I am still gathering information before i purchase one.
I would like to know what is a good species to have in my harsh climate.
I mean in the summer months, it barely hits 30C/86F but mostly 25c/77F. I would like to keep it outside in the summer months.
maybe one of those magnifying devices would work, to bring the temp up to 90F in a spot. or would i have to get a lamp outside too
I don't want a hibernating turtle because i've had bad experiences before, there is just a big chance of them not waking up.
I have seen some great enclosures here. That i can do.
i have questions on the bedding. how often it's changed and how deep and how much is used.
The prices look to be the same as say the pine or cypress they sell for hamsters. or not? maybe mix some?
I would like to get a yellow foot tortoise or maybe a radiant tortoise.
