We are going to build her a turtle box and I will get a UVB bulb. I work at pet-vet supply.

That's excellent! I wondered if you were at Petsmart or Pet Vet. Let me know if I can do anything to help you. I'm not far obviously. I'll pm my phone #.

Awesome! What type of substrate is best for her

 

[Andeld]

I use a combo of coconut fiber (soil like substrate) and I have cypress mulch at the other end where the water/soaking dish is. Mine like to burrow into the coco fiber cuz it's like a dirt basically. The coco fiber comes in blocks that you soak or bag of loose dirt.
