One aspect of tortoising I've neglected to look at is lower temperatures at night.
I just don't bother with a drop in temps with my redfoots or homeana. Maybe this is an area I need to look at.
For my radiated I've got temps dropping at night.
For the last few weeks I've been watching the weather in Madagascar(Toliara). Basically at this time of year it's around 86f/91f and 60/70% in the day and 75/80f and 80/90% at night.
I'm curios of what impact having night time lows has on our tortoises.
Also would the micro climates that the babies live in be more stable through day and night?
