Hi guys, I’m picking up a Russian tortoise as soon as I’ve finished building the enclosure. He’s a rescue and approximately 6-9 years old. I’ve read a fair bit but was hoping for some ideas. I’m thinking of putting his basking spot up in the top right corner. He has an open hide under the log to the left, but was thinking of making another secluded totally dark hide. In this I think I will add a ceramic heat lamp with a habistat to regulate heat. Has anyone got a picture of their hide? Also substrate wise I’ve got some Mediterranean topsoil and normal pet friendly topsoil. I Would appreciate any ideas and help please.
