Hello to all, I'm new to the tortoise keeping bit, as such, i am in need of a bit of advice. I got my sulcata from a friend and took him to a pet store where they sell them as well. They sold me a to gallon tank, a water dish, and woodchips as well as heating lamp (the ones with the red bulbs), as well as a log half thats been hollowed out for him to crawl under. I keep the tank in doors as its pretty cold right now here on Southern California (and a bit rainy). Am I in need of anything else? I know i need a full spectrum bulb, any cone reccomend a brand? how close should i keep it to the tank. I was also planning to buy a large plastic tub, and fill the bottom with dirt and plants and leave that on the balcony so I as i can keep my sulcata in that during the day time, then bring him into the tank i keep indoors at night. Its been suggested that I feed it rabbit grass along with a vitamin supplement: appetite plus. Is this recommendation correct? any and all help is greatly appreciated.
PS, Reeses is about 3 inches long and according to my friend a few months old.
