Hi everyone! Ive had my Russian tortoise for a few years now and I’ve never had a problem keeping his enclosure hot enough. Even in the winter when the house was cold, his enclosure would still be around 90° on his hot side. But I’ve noticed recently that he has been less active and only comes out every couple days. He use to come out every day but now he just stays buried most of the time. I looked at the temperature today and I noticed it had fallen to around 70° on his hot side. I have no clue why though because I am using the same wattage bulbs. What heat lights do y’all use ? Any suggestions on how to get his heat back up would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
