Greetings,
My wife and I are moving form the high desert in Agua Dulce, California to the cooler mountains of Frazier Park still in Southern California. The average temperature in our new location runs about 10 to 15 degrees cooler. It does get cold in the winter at our old location of Agua Dulce often freezing with occasional light snow. The Leopard Tortoises are about 13 years old and are doing fine as we have a large Rubber Maid hut with a floor reptile heat mat plus an electric heater we keep them in when the temperature drops below 65. Is there a way to still keep them in our new cooler climate? Grateful for any feedback on keeping Leopard Tortoises in colder climates.
Best, John and Kasandra
