Okay guys, so this is my first winter with a tortoise. Up until this month, the humidity was no issue. But this January has been brutally cold where I am, and very dry.
I have been changing the substrate more, and spraying it with water plenty. But it doesn't seem to be doing much help. I have an old humidifier running in the room, near the enclosure, as well.
Also, to help with dry skin, outside of the soaking...Is Aloe or Vitamin E okay to rub on my tortoises skin? It's not very dry, but it still isn't what it usually is.
Thanks for any help. I use a mix of 2 substrates, generally. Coco Coir and a moss mulch like one, I can't come to think of the name.
